Movie of the night

Movie #2 of the three my mom rented recently was The Majestic, starring Jim Carrey in the McCarthy era, doing a fine job in a dramatic role.. I really liked this movie. =)

Yeah, we missed parts, but we missed parts we seriously did not want to see because we hated the movie and weren't gluttons for punishment.

If the studio couldn't craft an enticing beginning of the film, I didn't particualrly want to stick around to see what else they would fail to craft.

Can't fault you for that without hypocrisy, since I did the same after an hour and a half of Godfather2--alternating 30 seconds of excitement with 20 minutes of boredom--and realizing there was still half the movie to go.

I liked The Majestic. But I like sappy, feel-good movies sometimes, and I didn't find any of it as terrible as you two did.. to each his own.
