DuplicityThe movie Duplicity is about two corporate spies (Julia Roberts and Clive Owen) who have a past relationship getting together to deceive their bosses and get rich.
Since the leading actor and actress are very famous the movie is a big hit. It's a good movie, but i was expecting something better.
It's generally fun to watch; however because of going back and forth in time, things get really confused at some point. I was expecting it to be funnier and less complicated.
Even though I didn't like the movie very much, it can be a great way to kill time if you don't have anything to do. It's a good chance to relax and enjoy for a while.
Seven Pounds
The movie Seven Pounds is about an IRS agent who tries to pay his atonement by changing the lives of seven strangers.
First of all, I must say it's a real "drama", so if you are going to the movies to relax, don't see this movie.
Even though it's a "drama", I enjoyed the movie. First of all Will Smith is the leading actor. I really enjoy his acting. Secondly, it is an unusual story. It has a surprising ending. It is very interesting.
I recommend you to go if you are looking for something little different.
I completely agree with your review of Duplicity. I was also expecting more, but it did have some subtle humor in the dialogue. (I think I embarrassed my husband because I was often the only one laughing in the theatre.) :)
ReplyDeleteSeven Pounds is on my list of films to see this summer. (Having a baby has really gotten in the way of my movie watching) :)
