The Singing Forest (2003)
These comments were more entertaining than the Ameer film!
I had fun reading the varied comments here, about "The Singing Forest". I thought the film had an interesting story idea, but it was not developed in the movie, at all. I agree with most all the negative comments about the directing, lousy sound, poor lighting, no action, etc. But, worst of all, our intelligence was insulted by an ignorant script which completely failed to deal with the basic story idea. It was so contrived that it should be named "The Groaning Forest". The actors did the best that could be expected with such a miserable script. I'm giving my copy to the local gay rights organization, with a warning "See it with friends who can make bad jokes about this taaackkkky flick, then you may get some chuckles."
Elizabeth (1998)
Liz Tudor Meets Madonna Music Video
This film ignores history in favor of 20th Century Music Video effects. The use of music by Mozart (uncredited) and Sir Edward Elgar is so outrageous an anachronism as to spoil any visual pleasure the film offers. Cate Blanchett looks mostly coy or sour. Joseph Fiennes looks mostly constipated. Both have more acting ability than seen here. The director should stick to known material.
