The Importance of Being Earnest
Donut | Saturday, June 01, 2002 - 09:10 pm     Well, how high brow am i tonite? putting undercover brother above oscar wilde... This movie was sweet and charming with funny moments and there was a good energy from the cast who appeared to be having a really good time. I never actually read the original version,altho i heard that the film dared to make some changes.The movie started slowly and got better, although i felt like it was kind of Merchant and Ivory meet Three's Company. I dont tend to love misunderstanding and mistaken identity in movies and I was just kind of surprised how sitcom-ish this movie was.and i still like rupert everett but he is getting just a bit too cocky about himself i think. So if you want a contented smile and look like a literate person, see this i guess, but if you want a few real laughs, go see undercover brother and tell everyone you saw The importance of being earnest.. btw, i did like the muffins, and the song was catchy.... |
