Really Very Bad

I love this movie, always have. It's funny and scary at the same time. It's a great movie. I heard that the scene where they all get toasted and insult each other while passing around a bottle of tequila was real as Kidman brought a cheap bottle of tequila on set and they all imbibed before the scene was shot. It's a fun movie and one of my favorites.

It wasn't a dreadful film, but it was somewhat slow. I thought the story was thin and wishy-washy. I guess it was meant as a "feel-good" movie.
Having a bad actress like Sandra Bullock in your movie doesn't help. -

I don't agree with the general consensus that it jumped from humor to romance etc too much I do however think the FIRST HALF is brilliant, and then the rest of it focuses too much on the haunting etc. I would have preferred if the main plot did not focus on Gillian's abusive boyfriend and his ghost, I would have liked more spells or something in the guise of The Witches of Eastwick where they inadvertently cast spells on the town that go awry, but since it was trying to be faithful to the book, I can't fault the movie on that. Every time I watch it I think how much potential a TV show version would have.

I just don't think it works as either a romance, comedy, drama or fantasy flick. The script has little wit. Whilst Sandra Bullock is the film's chief asset, I think I understand why it tanked so badly at the box office.

It started out interesting but I found the editing to be sloppy, mixing so many genres, rushed love story between Bullock and Quinn. I have a long list of things wrong with this movie, It's not the worst movie or anything but very disappointing and There's a good movie mixed into it but too many weak stuff holding it down. I'd rate it a 4/10
