It looks trite, pathetic, boring, cliched and unoriginal judging from the trailer. And I like weird movies, Ang Lee is amazing, (Brokeback Mountain and Crouching Tiger were great, I even liked Hulk and Taking Woodstock, a lot!). I'm a fan of art-house films, and out there stuff (Aronofsky's "The Fountain" is brilliant, as is his other work), but this just looks like a big heaping, stinking pile of *beep* to me.
Your thoughts? Anybody feel the same way? Completely opposite?
Well, it's just one Ang's vision of the book, it can be made many times as time goes by.
