Curious, is your critique that the film browbeats with emotion but nothing to say a critique of the musical AND the film, or just the film?

Posted by: Paul2k on Dec 27, 14:28 in response to thatpj's post Thought it was pure garbage. Crowe is Razzie worthy.

In other words, have you seen the musical and liked it, only to see the movie version and dislike the way it presents the same material?

Read the book. If you wish to watch the movie in addition to reading the book, that seems reasonable. This point is especially apt for DTXbro Dec 27, 15:05
