FILM: Serendipity

or

Here’s a movie about which there are two schools of thought. If you’re a near fetishist for any- and every-thing John Cusack or Kate Beckinsale related, you’re going to love this film. If you love both of them (and have for years, as I have) you’re going to really love it. If, on the other hand, you have no special attachment to the actors involved, and you’re not willing put up with a movie that stretches credibility so far past the breaking point as to move in to the realm of ridiculous fantasy, then you’re not going to dig it. Still, as escapist fare goes, this is pretty pleasant stuff. Note to Molly Shannon: You almost did it! For 90% of Molly’s part in this film, she’s playing a character. And she’s good. But late in the film, she apparently can’t resist turning in to “Molly Shannon,” the tired SNL cliche’ we’ve seen her do a hundred other times (as Mary Katherine Gallagher, joyologist Helen Madden, etc.). C’mon, Molly – next time, play a character all the way! Link |
