I'm sorry, but this movie just ... some serious eggs! I mean, it just went on and on, and by the end I was praying for someone to dig my eyes out with a carrot pealer just for a little entertainment. Russel Crowe was too bullish for this role. It was kind of like hiring a football player to act as a meek, mentally disabled person. And then there was Jennifer Connely, the human Barbie doll, practically perfect in every way. She was really dull to watch for almost three hours. The basic plot line wandered a lot. They could have edited about an hour out of the movie. Oh well. Its a hard knock life.
