This is what movies should be about. Great writing, excellent acting, enchanting music, and a pace that makes you completely lose track of time passing. Unfortunately, this movie was quietly released, and deserved much more exposure and press. Ed Norton yet again shows why he is, in my book, one of the best actors, delivering another fine performance. Naomi Watts also delivers a great performance. And these two actors, who also produced the movie, are guided by an excellent script. It's a story of love, infidelity, punishment, stubbornness, and realization. The music score is simply amazing (not surprising that it won the Oscar last year), and some of the cinematography is breathtaking. It's a beautiful movie that reaches out and touches you in so many ways. Truly worth seeing.

Very good movie. The cruelty of this doctor that motivates him to tag along his wife, makes you wonder if you could forgive such this man. This trip that will change their lives for ever in a foreign country with different culture and traditions. Good interpretation from both actors. Sometimes, it seems a bit long.

A very visually beautiful movie. I just couldn't bring myself to feel any sympathy for Naomi Watts' character until the very end. Edward Norton is so underrated, he's one of my favourites of all time.

Exceptional movie, subtle and nuanced performances by Naomi Watts & Edward Norton. Beautiful images, wonderful score. Touching story (some might call it melodramatic)
