sorry, poor excuse for a joke.
Film not bad I thought, and only a little mixed up at times. Definitely worth the watch.
There were in the end perhaps too many ideas, and many of these were left dangling and un-pursued at the end. (like the reasons 'why' the 'married version' had started an affair with that complete loser....or what was going to happen when the married version finds out she has got the sack....). But I guess that's okay. A film doesn't have to explain everything I suppose....
Right, Griffiths. Good or bad ? Well, Im going against the grain here. She's okay, but there are some forced moments (e.g. early scenes with the school councilor.....who wasn't that great either for that matter). Agree with other commentator that the daughter was v.good.
Better than sliding doors ? No. Both films surprise, but I didn't really end up liking any of the characters that much in MMI. Probably strict baptist upbringing coming out here, but boy do these characters find it easy to sleep with someone else. This in itself is not unrealistic of course. But the lack of comment by the film or reaction/ feeling shown by the parties is frankly too cold for my tastes. Maybe things are different in Australia.....maybe, Im just plain jealous and wish I had fewer hang ups. Hey ho.
Sliding doors is a lot funnier and has charm. MMI didnt hit my funny bone, mildly amusing was how I would describe it...., and lacked charm.
But I will give MMI credit for it's domestic realism. Spot on.....excruciatingly so at times. Puts 'Family Man' firmly in its place so it does.
Last comment though must be reserved for the husband. Given that he is apparently the great-love-of-her-life-that-she-let-slip-though-her-fingers sort of thing, I was expecting someone, well you know, quite nice ? But he wasn't that at all. He was a complete a*se. He was grumpy, arrogant, sexist and had a perpetual down turned mouth all the time. What was she thinking ???!!!
It would be fair to give MMI the benefit of the doubt that its undoubted ambiguity is intended and carefully managed. Both lives have hope at the end, and you can't say one is better than the other. If this was the intention, MMI is a success and makes for a colourful film compared with the normal Hollywood black and white.
