The Hoax

Saturday, February 2, 2008

I only really watched this one because my parents had Netflixed it.

I'm not a Lasse Hallstrom fan, and I doubt I ever will be. He's not untalented as a film maker, but I think I just reject his entire aesthetic and worldview. This isn't a terrible film by any means, but the early scenes are never as fun or as entertaining as they should be, and the later scene try to bring in some emotion/drama that the film hasn't earned. Skip it.
