Very, Very, Very Weird Movie
I went into this movie expecting to really enjoy it. I'm a deeply spiritual person and I like a lot of romantic movies...but this was just too far out there.
Spoilers Ensue:
Half the time I felt like I was missing something...they don't explain anything fully. They introduce characters left and right and don't develop any of them. We never understand why Crowe hates Peter Lake so much. What's with all the reference to the stars? Will Smith's Lucifer is a direct reference to Christianity...it's not like he's just a generic "devil"...so where's God? Do people go to a "heaven" or do they actually become stars? What was the big deal about Peter staying alive wandering around completely alone and with no memory for 100 years to save one child's life? Plus, how did he save her? Was it the bed itself? The kiss? The dead flower Willa gave him? Sigh...those and MANY more questions go unanswered.
I wanted to like this movie but it was a letdown...
P.S. Are we really supposed to buy Farrell as 21 years old? Come on...
