I kind of agree. I think I maybe like it a little more than you do but I still think it's pretty overrated. It's always felt almost like a TV movie to me for some reason. Is that scene you're talking about the one with the opera music? Because even however many years ago when I saw it in the theater I thought that scene sucked.
