Persuasion



My Thoughts:

-    The 1995 version is WAY better! This was dull and awful.

-    The camera work throughout the film drove me crazy! There were really bad monkey cam moments, especially in the beginning and the end. Why did we need to be so close to everyone's faces? The costumes and scenery is nice, lets see some of that! I hated just seeing giant  heads for most of the film.

-    The picture quality is pretty bad for 2007.

-    The story strayed from the book. I hate that! The 1995 version follows the book better.

-    The ending made me so angry. It just drags on and on. The letter isn't as awesome. The fact that Anne is running all over town was annoying. The kiss was SO awkward. It looked liked she was going to eat him. Stupid stupid ending!

-    Something about Anne bugged me. I don't know exactly what it is, but I didn't like the actress for her. I kept thinking she needed to close her mouth. She just lets it hang open.

-    Although the Captain Wentworth in this was better looking than the 1995 Captain, the acting wasn't better. The acting in the 1995 version was better overall.

-    The longing looks and glances weren't there :(

-    I was bored for a lot of this movie. It just didn't grab me or keep my interest. It felt like the whole movie took forever.

-    Skip this and go watch the 1995 version. It is much more satisfying.
