The Sin Is Watching The Film

Image that you are a rich person who could buy anything you want for example you live in a big house. You own a coffee company every one likes you. You are a respond able businessperson but you are lonely as hell. 

 So with the money and power you have you use it to get a mail order bride from American. But this bride is like no other bride she has some secrets. Which brings us to this film called Original Sin. The coffee Ceo is Luis (Antonio Banderas) and his mail order bride name Julie Russell (Angelina Jolie). Julie seems like the perfect bride but she has some issues to work out and it doesn’t include Luis.

But Luis lover her and would do anything for her.

 

Original Sin is just that a sin to watch it. Let me tell you why. 

Good

  1. The location and the customs look real good. The way the director made the story looks was good.
  2. The acting was ok. Esp. by Angelina Jolie character. She has the bad girl part down to the tee. She looks good in the film but she usually does in her films.
  3. The music was very good.
  4. The ending was the best part of the film.

 

Bad

  1. The first 20 mins I though I was looking at a porno movie. I was about to get up and look at the sign in the lobby to see if I was in the right film.
  2. In some scenes Angelina Jolie look like she was dipped in baby powder. Also you could see where they cover her tattoo up.
  3. The first 25 mins was real slow. Then the story picked up and then it got so predictable. The ending was the only good part in the film.
  4. The story could have been done better with the stars they had in the film. What a wastes of stars.
  5. The film was too long.
  6. Couples of the scenes were funny. This is not a comedy movie.

 

Overall Original Sin is just that a sin to waste you money on. This is one film you should see it on video if you have too not in the theaters. Trust me you will thank me later.
