We've received thus far mixed reviews on this film, but I thought the trailer looked intriguing. I'll just turn it on over to the Juice for a brief look see for ya..
Hey Harry, Juice here. Saw a final print of The General's Daughter tonight, and theres not a whole lot to say...its not a great movie, its not a bad one either. I never read the book, but i hear it is decent (and someone in the screening with me said they had read the book and it followed well). The story centers around the mysterious murder of the General's daughter (gasp!), and John Travolta investigates. Now this movie has some of the most graphic rape scenes Ive ever seen so be prepared. Travolta was excellent in his part, one of his better acting performances although the southern accent that he tries in the beggening was quite horrific, but thankfully it doesnt near the rock bottom Nick Cage in ConAir (will there ever be an actor who can do one right other than Matthew Mconaughey (sp?). James Woods is awesome once again! Some of the dialogue between Travolta and Woods is fantastic. So this movie is worth a morning matinee. Whats wrong with it? Well there about two big things in the plot (that i can remember) that are completely unexplained, and the payoff at the end is kinda ridiculous (or atleast it was to me). So all in all I would reccomend seeing this movie for some of the acting, but not much else...
Damn these double bladed lightsabers are cool I cant stop turning off the lights and hitting stuff with it I feel like im ten again, later, THE Juice
