I know. I should review this in the DVD section, but this section is already here.
What can I say? Dull. Very Dull. Yawn. I saw my sets but I guess somebody else built them because my name didn't make the credits. It's all about the credits, baby.
The story was stupid. There was a lot of actering going on. We all knew the bad guy from Frame 1 even if we hadn't read the book or screenplay.
In a weird way, the film didn't want to be watched. At first, the DVD wouldn't load. But then it kicked in. Since dinner was being prepared, I made tQ watch the making of video. It turns Alan Cameron actually built and painted everything. Pretty good for an old English Production Designer. After that, I hit the play main movie button and nothing happened except black screen and then a still image of Tom Hanks. I did this three or four times with the same result from all different menus. I eventually just went to the scenes list and started from the second scene in. If there was something in the first scene that was important, we missed it. Which could be the theme for the whole movie, Miss it. I can't wait for the third film in the trilogy to not watch.

So much for the flickr badge idea. Dammit
