WIsh I skipped this one.


Many of you will disagree on what I thought of this movie. I was highly disappointed in The American. The only positive thing I can say is it had a chance to be great and it does have some great visuals of Italy.
I have read many reviews on the film and found this one by Rebbecca Murray to be my favorite.
"a wasted opportunity, a flat, uninspired production that doesn't go anywhere and doesn't tell an engaging or even logical story."

  1. I was thinking of seeing this, just because it's semi close to walk to.
    Maybe I won't now. Have a nice weekend CWN

  2. Hey AB- If you see it let me know what you think. For the most part, it is getting good reviews but I could not get into it.

  3. I think we'll wait for the DVD release. The In-Laws saw it and said it was OK, but slow.

    Pedantic Note: The rifle in the picture above is a Mini-14 with a scope and suppressor. Wouldn't be my first choice as a "sniper" rifle. Also, pushing it up against her eye like that is just asking for a black eye when you pull the trigger and the rifle recoils.

    But... it looks cool and that's more important for hollywood :)
