The Fall of the Roman Empire (1964)
ahhhh why so long..
I love Sophia Loren. The remainder of the cast is really good but why so long. I mean how many minutes do we need to see horses marching up a snowy hill and down a not so snowy hill then we get to see all of the horses of the western hemishpere march into Rome. I watched the whole thing last night and I think they coulda/shoulda cut the movie time by at least a third. 180 minutes is way way too long.
Sylvia Scarlett (1935)
what a waste of talent
You would think with Hepburn Grant and Gwenn all in this title there would be more talent transferred to the screen. The script is hardly worthy of these stars and the plot drags from boring to downright mind numbing. Hepburn's role as a girl disguised as a boy suspends belief in that you would think the other people in the movie would have figured it out long before she "reveals" herself as a female. Total waste of an evening.. and two stars from me was generous.
Heartland (2007)
Boring kiddie show
We tried to watch this show. It must be great for children or horse lovers. However the predictablity and the constant riding of horses and the cleaning out of the horse manure over and over again. And I am not a fan of ultra violent movies or shows either. And we didn't give up quickly although we should have done so. The characters and the pacing of the show don't hold interest very long. The scenery is fantastic. The people are rather pretty all around. The scripts are very plain with very little cerebral activity involved. Overall we think if you got some little children who love horses go for it otherwise leave it be.
