The Tourist (30/12/10)


Its all about appreciating the calmness and the inner beauty of Angelina Jolie. Can you relate this lady to Salt, the russian spy? Definitely, not much difference in image and dressing. But she looks slightly older compared to the role, Salt and she gives a very warm motherly feeling here. The way she walks, carry herself, facial expression, especially the way she blinks her eyes. It slows you down from the moderately intense and slightly comical introduction. In the midst of the storm, there is calmness. Wow.. Beautiful. Johnny Depp takes on a more serious role in the film. The train ride conversation between them was basically introducing themselves as they get to know one another. She, tries to draw him to her.

I thought the beginning was good, it seems like something really exciting coming up. But you get calm down during the train ride and bits of scenes along the way gets you excited again. Well, the ending wasn't fantastic, maybe it should be more realistic instead of having the gun shot that crashes through the glass window in slow motion and all three man drop dead at an instance.

Some reviewers say this film is disappointing. Probably the film should have thrown in one or two more dramatic chase to hunt down the couple. 3.5/5
