In Reply to: "A movie that slow-walks for an hour and a half." Yep. posted by clarkjohnsen on August 26, 2003 at 08:48:34:
You didn't address any of my points, except Duvall's acting, which is on a par with an old coot w/mutton chops whose name I can't recall at the moment but has become an embarrassment of over-sincerity.
Boring AIN'T European, btw.

My title line is a direct quote of a so-called "point". Besides, what use is there adresssing remarks such as "zero drama", "monotonous" and "forgettable" (which I guess it isn't, as you're still on about it).
is a key component. Hiding around town and making shy moonful glances at a 50 yr. old woman is not too dramatic. Where, clark, is the antagonist? The sense of impending doom?
A western must have an epic climax. This one? Not even a wet dream. The big shootout as filmed here is indistinguishable from network tv.
But if your idea of a great movie is Costner talking for an hour and a half...buy a copy when it comes out. At least you'll sleep well.
