Oh, what a long drawn out tale. Though believe me the literary version(s) would have been longer, more drawn out and a lot more confusing. (Since according to the book Isolde’s mother was also named Isolde and they were both alive during the whole story.)
It had a lot of good fight scenes, which is always a must for me. A good fight scene is anytime you yourself feel like jumping up and beating someone. Yeah, it had a lot of those. It also had a lot of “Run, idiots! You’re gonna get caught!” moments, which was almost torture. And in the end you do get teary-eyed for the two lovers, but I won’t say why or I’ll ruin everything.
Some things that did bother me. The main characters somehow forgot that they were in a scene of medieval Ireland and Brittany, and so they forgot their fake accents. The acting itself would have probably been made fun of back in my high school drama stage. Seriously, a little effort would have gone a long way. Having the fake accents would have atleast compensated for Uncle Mark’s scene-stealing lazy eye, and the fact that Tristan is being played by a tool.
I’m sorry not a lot of great remarks about this movie.
On a brighter unrelated note: I am done with my HTML/CSS class. I got a B on my final and I just turned in my two final projects, I’m feeling confident about them, but no grades yet so I will post as soon as I get them. Thursday at 1:30pm will be my Tech Math finals, so I will be spending a good part of tomorrow preparing for that. So excited for fall classes, so everyone send well wishes.
