The Talented Mr. Ripley (1999)
What a snooze fest!
If you like fast paced movies with a moving plot and a hook, look elsewhere. This was a painstakingly slow movie. I have not read the book but after seeing this movie, it is highly unlikely I will. This movie is tailored to the artsy fartsy type. I personally did not like the characters and wasn't moved by them either. It was a dark movie that only makes you think that there is no hope for mankind. I am sorry I spent $4 on the rental and allowed it to suck about two hours out of my life.
Eye of the Beholder (1999)
Boring and hard to follow.
Another rental that I feel I have wasted $4 on and about two hours of my life. The plot didn't make sense and was hard to follow. The pace was also painstakingly slow. This is a story that probably needs the format of a book to be able to understand. I didn't like the main character. He was a stalker and they made that out to be like it was okay. I would recommend a pass on this movie.
