Not Dead Poets Society
21 November 2002
I went in thinking about how the campus looked in Dead Poets Society and how Robin Williams may have looked in that suite. Thankfully that mental picture did not last long as the movie spread away from the old standing on the desk antics. Kevin Kline does well in this movie but it is not a seasoned performance like '93's Dave. Comedy is clearly his strong suit. I walked away feeling like a rainy day matinee would have been a better time to see the movie. Don't be afraid to spend your money on this, but don't worry about not finding good seats either.

Good for all ages

Harry Potter made a good book series. I found the movies to be good adaptations of the books. The first movie was excellent. I find Chamber of Secrets to be a good stand alone film that keeps the series alive as well. Truly an enjoyable film. I hope they manage to make a third film a reality.

Walked out

Even with very little expectation in mind, this movie proved to be a disappointment. My wife and I got to the second scene and could stand no more. These kind of gags belong on the cutting room floor of a fraternity dark room. It doesn't take much for a group of guys to come up with different ways to hurt themselves on screen. Perhaps some liked the mindless antics they were showing. I have a reality check for those that sat and watched the whole show. The biggest joke they pulled was getting you to purposefully open your wallet or purse to support their stupidity. Anyone for a couple additions to the Darwin Awards?
