The problems with this movie are the same problems I have with Stephen Daldry's other film The Hours, it's too damn long, leaves too much stuff ambiguous and it can't decide weither to be aloof or sentimental.

The very thought of even attempting to watch The Reader makes me gag.

Did we watch the same movie? There's nothing ambiguous about this one, it couldn't be more in your face sentimental than it is. I think you're the first person I know who wasn't moved by it. It almost had me in tears near the end. Plus the soundtrack is really great and helps to set up the nostalgic mood. There's really nothing bad I can say about it. :\




I finally broke my Von Trier cherry... Pretty good stuff. Very atmospheric. The editing is insanely original. 8/10

Fantastic movie, one of the best out of these graphic novel adaptations that seem to be popular nowadays. Plus Natalie Portman is a fox even with a shaved head.

Yes in fact he loathed it, compared it's message to the Bush association even.

I thought it was good, entertaining, but it wasn't the novel.
