Review of Great Expectations (1998) by Andreia C — 01 Oct 2011
Didn't like it.
Didn't like Ethan Hawke's character, but, let's face it, little Finn was cute.
Gwyneth's character, big NO.
The only things I enjoyed were the although short, Chris Cooper's, Robert De Niro's and Anne Bancroft's characters. A quote by Finn in the beginning of the movie; "I'm not going to tell the story the way it happened. I'm going to tell it the way I remember it."And also the last talk between Ms. Dinsmoor and Finn where Finn repeated her words and gestures; "It's my heart, and its broken.".
But, overall I didn't like it, the story wasn't engaging and was a bit messy.
