Movie Reviews of The Innocent
Movie Review: Not Exactly As Good As The Book
Summary: 2 Stars
This film gets 2 stars for good production only. Fans of the book will be grossly disappointed. Anthony Hopkins was grossly mis-cast. It stays too far from the book in order to be an "acceptable" movie and too much is lost and twisted in the conversion. Frankly, I'd think McEwan would have enough money that he wouldn't need to sell out this way.
The characters have no chemistry with one another.
The ending is ambiguous.
For all the "movie" magic weaved in, it lacks drama.
A mere phantom of the book. Skip it.
