If we are voicing our opinions about well received movies I'd like to mention Sense & Sensibility 95. It is by far, one of the worst Austen movies I've ever watched Definitely, Emma Thompson's weakest work and this is coming from a massive fan It just seems a parody of what S&S should be, the casting is way way off and there is absolute no flow to the movie or feeling. It just left me feeling incredibly cold.

Hugh Grant is miscast, and looks like an uncomfortable modern day bachelor whose wandered into a costume party. Alan Rickman looks like he's just blissfully aware of himself and what's going on around him, Kate Winslet although beautiful looks tardy and never manages to make her character more than a silly young woman. And this together with a lack of chemistry with any of the couples it's just so grating to watch. Like nails on a chalkboard Although I have to credit Emma Thompson as the best Elinor I've seen to date Her performance is waaayy above the production.

Good one. Sense & Sensibility has always been praised but I've never seen it because I wanted to read the novel first. Heh.

If you've read the book I don't think you'll like the movie

Hee! I bet. Sometimes these movies are taken for pure comedy when in reality these novels are quite sophisticated so I don't doubt this for a second.

1. I think Ben Affleck is a really great actor. Not saying I'm a fan of all his work, but I do believe he is very talented

2. Brad Pitt is completely overrated IMO. I will never, never understand the hype surrounding his acting and/or his looks.

I agree about Ben Affleck he's made poor script choices in the past but he's definitely not the worst actor of his generation by any standards. He's quite cute too Seriously though I've never understood the flack he gets

Brad Pitt is just so mediocre as an actor. Once upon a time he may have been attractive (as a newly wed to JA) but he just fails to hit the mark on so many levels. He's usually out acted in all of his big hits

And oh Avengers sucks the dirt Man Of Steel walks on

Ps, Viggo Mortensen should get an Oscar. For just about every role he does.
