Review of Stone (2012) by Richard S — 27 Mar 2011

I hate the word "cinema" to describe the medium of of film. It reminds me of being packed like cattle into a darkened room along with a bunch of total strangers.

I didn't like this film at all, but thats not to say it wasn't a good piece of "cinema". It made me feel, which is what cinema is all about making the audience "feel".

Whether it is a story of one mans rise or redemption and another mans fall or decline , I don't know. This film left a bitter lump in my throat and I would not rush to watch it again.

So overall i'd say good cinema yes, but a good movie perhaps not - if that makes any sense ?.
