maybe the fact be that i be just not a fan of charles dickens novel a tale of two city . i read the novel and or rather and i be force into read it and and i be only be honest when i say that the novel be not one of my favorite . yet and this screen version of the story and be even bad . it make several critical mistake and be overall and just not a movie that motivate . it try to be creative and nifty and but fails . perhaps the big mistake it make be that it try to cram literally almost everything that be in charles dickens original novel into the storyline . what the screenwriter ( s ) do not realize be that some thing that work out perfectly in a novel do not work out in a movie . the movie last for quite a long time and right from the beginning and it wasn not very entertain at all . many scene drag on for too long and another mistake and and i can tell the director be try to be creative and such a in the love scene . another failure of a tale of two city be how poorly execute everything be . the scene with the hanging have an okay buildup and but the action moment that be upcoming be execute in the poor manner . the guy do not fall at all . he just kind of immediately froze and hung like a dummy . he should have kick and strangle to death the way he be hang like that . acting be another problem and it be okay and but nothing great . that miss pross girl and when argue with madame defarge and be talk and bar her teeth a if she be go to bite madame defarge like an animal . and their fight be just plain dull . overall and neither the novel nor this screen adaptation be really anything that spark interest in me . and another thing be that it do not spark interest in the others who be force into watch this along with me . maybe for some people and fan of the novel mostly and this be good . but i be not judge it base on the novel . i be judge it a a film . and it have too many flaw and there literally no effective creativity and and it just doesn not work .
