Review of Savages (2012) by James W — 29 Oct 2013

I have kinda mixed feelings about this movie. I like Oliver Stone, I think he is a great director. I thought the story was ok, bit dodgy in places, maybe cause the acting wasn't as good as it should have been.

I liked the majority of the cast bar Blake Lively.. I find her really quite irritating. There are some super hot guys in this, so no complaints there ;p I loved the way it was shot, some of the scenery was really breathtaking.

There was sufficient amount of violence and I dug the soundtrack. However, it was sooo so long! There was so much unnecessary filler, especially when it came to Blake Lively which was hella annoying. At some points I was really into the film and I thought it was really good and entertaining but during others I just would have rather watched paint dry.

Like I said, mixed feelings.
