Review of Far and Away (1992) by Chris V — 27 Dec 2009
This movie was great. A few parts were a bit odd, and at times it was a bit slow, and some plot lines were left untied (loose ends). Oh and sure the accents were bad, but I think the rest of the movie makes up for it.
Very well written and performed...I wish some things had been addressed which weren't finalized such as SPOILER ALERT: the vengeance between Joseph and Mr. Christie, the rematch between Joseph and the Italian guy, the business between Joseph and the boxing racketeers (they stole his money, beat him, and left them paupers).
Good movie though...probably Cruise & Kidman's best acting (together or otherwise). I'd have given it 5 stars if not for the aforementioned loose ends.
Summary: Great, entertaining (a bit long), and worth watching at least once.
