Movie Reviews of P.S.
Movie Review: Has potential but runs out of steam half way through
Summary: 2 Stars
P.S. has potential. Both Grace and Linney are great in it, but midway through the movie loses its mystic and gets boring. It's a shame because it could've been a great movie. Great acting with a bland plot.Movie Review: Emotionless and boring
Summary: 1 Stars
I had a lot of expectations about this movie after bumping into the dvd in a store and reading the plot. I guess I was expecting something like, well, P.S. I Love You with Hillary Swank but anyway, I didn't let those feelings ruin the screening of the movie.
I was waiting and waiting and waiting....and waiting for SOMETHING in this movie to happen, but it never did. It is UNbelievably boring, and it seems like nothing ever happens in it.
Someone described in the reviews here that the story is a feel-good one, about something too good to be true. Well you know what? Nobody in this movie made me feel like this was that kind of story. Laura Linney is a very good actress, and so Topher Grace, but they didn't conveny any emotion at all. There is not even a really subtle reaction to the discovery that this guy is her long-dead ex boyfriend. You'd think that would warrant a facial reaction that moves you, tears, something. Not even Marcia Gay Harden's character seems to show any of these reactions. I mean, what the heck happens in this movie? Laura Linney finds a guy who is a freaking copy of her dead high school boyfriend, not only looks-wise, but also his behaviour and everything else. She begins dating him (having sex mere hours after meeting him). You would think that would make you show some emotion if it happened to you, right? Well not in this movie. It's like we're in some parallel universe were emotions are so passé, kinda like Beneath The Planet Of The Apes where talking is so rudimental that people communicate telepathically.
Not only didn't I feel engaged at all in this movie (except in the intro where Laura Linney is applying make-up: kinda says it all lol), I was so bored I almost fell asleep.
I can understand this MAY not be the big movie where every sentiment has to be scored by John Williams, but come on! At least show some reaction.
Bah, well, don't expect anything out of this movie, maybe you'll like it better than I have, I paid full price for this movie and I regret it.
The characters in this movie go through life as if they were mannequins.
It's like they are dead inside, like this movie.
Movie Review: I want that hour and a half of my life back, right now.
Summary: 1 Stars
This film is sorely lacking in the following:
*Character development,
*Chemistry between the two key characters,
*Plotlines that actually work alongside one another
*Characters you will actually care about
This film DOES have:
*A storyline that is either boring or completely nonsensical
*An infamous sex scene that is actually remarkably unhot (thanks to the aforementioned lack of chemistry)
*Characters that will repeatedly frustrate, irritate and aggravate you.
*No wisdom to impart to a viewer
Terrible. Absolutely terrible. How they got such top quality actors in this I'll never know. Avoid, avoid, avoid.
