The Tourist

Johnny Depp is a great actor, but he unfortunately has a really boring character in it. Good mind-twisting end.

Suggested MPAA Rating: PG-13 for some strong language, and brief violence. 2 F words.

Johnny Depp stars as an American tourist whose playful dalliance with a stranger leads to a web of intrigue, romance and danger in "The Tourist." During an impromptu trip to Europe to mend a broken heart, Frank (Depp) unexpectedly finds himself in a flirtatious encounter with Elise (Angelina Jolie), an extraordinary woman who deliberately crosses his path. Against the breathtaking backdrop of Paris and Venice, their whirlwind romance quickly evolves as they find themselves unwittingly thrust into a deadly game of cat and mouse. well this movie wasn't for sure on my Most Anticipated movie list but i wanted to see it just for the lead actors. this movie turned out exactly the way i thought it would be. extremely dull and crap. i don't like to use strong words or heavy sentences for a movie, specially the one with big well known names behind them, but in this case i have to. i don't know who the original movie was, i heard it is a remake of some European Movie, i have no idea how that one was but what i think is it must be good, because this movie had so much potential that you can even feel while watching of being a good, memorable movie, but it just fails. for the starting 20 to 30 minutes, it felt really good and charming but after that it totally fails to do anything else rather than doing nothing. One of the most dull screenplays of this year, it has absolutely nothing, completely empty, hollow and without any soul or words. very badly written screenplay. Direction of this movie was very bad. Editing was below average. story seemed kind of interesting. plot was dull. this movie definitely was very slow moving but the plus point was i was never bored while watching this movie even with a dull and awful written screenplay. i don't know why? probably because of the Lead actors i think. The cinematography i would say was very good, really nice locations. Art direction was above average and so was the other technical things. Talking about the actors so, Johnny Depp was above average in his character. he looked promising but he could have been better. it seemed that he is feeling forced to do this movie while you watch him. expressions were not good however dialogue delivery was good. his role was kind of comic. but the whole movie and Angie's character is not comic at all. i mean how the hell it got nominated for Golden Globes in the Musical or Comedy categories. i mean there were many more movies that deserved it. hell. Angelina Jolie sure looked good but she didn't do justice to her character. she looked liked a wax statue. bad performance, a let down. she deserves a Razzie nomination not Golden Globe. her costumes are wonderful, very Chic and elegant. looked like a hot sex bomb beauty in elegant Channel outfits. acting wise a terrible movie. well see the Rotten Tomatoes rating, i mean 21%? critics hated this movie and the performances and yes they were so right. a first time on screen mismatched A list Hollywood couple with almost zero chemistry and no connection to the movie. not just big celebrities can save a movie. it is a spy thriller which rarely thrills along with a Romantic comedy which completely fails. it is definitely one of the bad good looking movie of this year. NOT RECOMMENDED.

This was a great movie butthere was a lot of gun usage. It had a great mystery element. Very entreiging. I think that a family with some tweens would love it. You would expect that with Jolie and Depp, there would be a steamy love scene but there is only one kiss in the whole movie.
