I've read some of the reviews in the paper and I feel the same as you.

I'll also look on CinemaClock and go by the starred rating, as I've found it to be way more accurate than any critic.Zitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10934983183390982361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025201337316610324.post-37373717208220576552010-03-02T09:35:40.864-05:002010-03-02T09:35:40.864-05:00Hi Marilyn!

I've just read the novel Shutter Island. Loved everything but the ending. I like Lehane's books very much but always wish for a little happier ending. Haven't seen the movie - might wait for the DVD.<br /><br />Rhonda<br />aka The Southern Half of Evelyn DavidThe Stiletto Ganghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01667670723330755598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025201337316610324.post-27341793241738937642010-03-02T09:07:31.593-05:002010-03-02T09:07:31.593-05:00It seems to me like you're on the right track ...It seems to me like you're on the right track in that you just have to find one you know you consistently agree with or consistently disagree with and then make your plans accordingly!<br /><br />I always think about the quote attributed to Jack Lemmon: A critic is someone who if they didn't have that job would be a sniper in a school yard.Vicky Politonoreply@blogger.com
