Movie Reviews of The Pearl
Movie Review: the pearl
Summary: 1 Stars
As an English teacher, I was very eager to purchase this modern adaptation of Steinbeck's novella to show to students. Imagine my shock and horror when I discovered this film has a HAPPY ending! Hollywood has totally changed the impact of Steinbeck's original work to satisfy those who need to walk out of a movie experience with a smile on their faces...unfortunately, a smile isn't what people will walk out with after viewing this film. Very disappointing!Movie Review: Teachers Beware
Summary: 1 Stars
If you plan on using this to accompany the reading, it is terrible and does not follow Steinbeck's novella. Frankly, it's just a weird movie. If you want to assign a critical analysis of film adaptations, then it's a prime candidate for a writing prompt. But other than that, it's a waste of time.Movie Review: The pearl

This is no pearl of a movie. It is slow going and terribly riddled by bad acting. The adaptation is only good because they changed the ending to somthing other than the book's. Very disappointing movie...Movie Review: Terrible
Summary: 1 Stars
Just saw this in the theatre...what a waste of good money! Except for Richard Harris the acting was terrible, the actors are horribly miscast...an altogether forgettable experience.
