    Title : so many movies, so little time...
    Time : 10:36 pm

    Earworm: Statue~~Low Millions

    ... and i wasted precious time watching The New World!

    i should've known something was wrong when the only tagline was from Newsweek.
    it was like something out of National Geographic. kudos for the scenery shots and accompanying music. no wonder it was nominated for best cinematography at the recent Oscars. Plot was barely held together with the slo-o-o-w pacing and when it picks up we are left confused as the screen fades to black.
    Rating: 1/5 (for the 'cinematography')

    Watched Tristan and Isolde the next day.

    it was better, not sure whether coz it was viewed right after the new world, and my A1-for-english-literature sister was drawing parallels between the movie and Romeo and Juliet. (and why is that Nanny Mcphee boy everywhere?) It was a tragic love story. but can get quite frustrating at times. and only when the shit hits the fan(excuse my French), and everything starts to fall apart, a simple word of truth seemed suffice, but too late to undo everything now. It was still quite enjoyable to watch, not short of any action on screen. Bragnea was definitely most entertaining! (effortlessly stimulating laughter from the audience tho unintentionally, but not in a totally bad way)
    Basically Tristan, an English warrior was saved by Isolde, an Irish princess, and they fell in love, but it was not meant to be coz the English and Irish are at war..yaddayadda and in the end Tristan had to win her hand in marriage for Lord Marke, who actually raised Tristan as his own child. So in simple words, he was having affair with his 'mother' eee...with lotsa activity in the wild =p
