Great Expectations [1998] Movie Reviews on CinemaClock

I had great expectations after the first half of the movie because it really was good! But after it just fell apart. I'm not an Ethan Hawke fan and even though he was good as an actor, his character was annoying and I don't know if I was supposed to feel pity for him or not... I didn't, I just though he was an idiot. Gweneth was very sexy in that movie, never saw that side of her... but overall, the story kind of sucks. The title suits the movie well... you have great expectations with the way the story is gonna grow but you end up disappointed. Still worth a rental on a lonely night...

This film is by far the best I have ever had the privilege of watching... of course, it is based from a most impressive story by an incredibly talented writer, charles Dickens... but the movie is excellent as well... I could not have asked to substitute so many of the actors and actresses. Robert DeNiro, without a doubt, dominates his role and no other could have played the role with his same effect... and Gwyneth Paltrow, of course, was the only choice for estella... she obviously proves her talent through his incredible love story... everyone must see it.
