Had some problems but still enjoyable
23 November 1999
This movie was, well, entertaining, is that so bad? There were some problems with the plot by the time the movie wound itself up (a little confusing, with a good shot of "Body Heat"). I really enjoyed Kenneth Branagh's performance. I'm not from Georgia, but he put together one heck of a southern accent for being a Brit. Embeth Davidtz was enjoyably strange. To me, these actors (including Robert Downey Jr. Gee, I hope he doesn't kill himself) fabulously disappear into their roles. Robert Duvall was up to his normal high standards. Also, this was one of the least strange Robert Altman movies I think I've ever seen. Although not completely satisfying, it's worth the view for the top-notch acting.
