Persuasion (2007 TV Movie)
3/10
Fish face

Warning: Spoilers
I think it very telling that so many people, without having discussed it first, had the same reaction to the long awaited "kiss" at the end of the film.

She looked like a fish. A gasping, dying fish. Yeah, I get that she ran all over town (still not sure why they played it that way) but come ON! That had to be the worst on screen kiss in the history of kisses. The only reason I didn't give this movie a single star is because of the guy who played Frederick. He was easy on the eyes and not a horrible actor. But even he wasn't enough to get me to ever watch this travesty again. I'm a romantic and I've seen my share of climax of the story kisses and this . . . this deserves to be buried and forgotten.

And that constant creepy stare at the camera didn't help anything either.
