Has anyone else seen Marie Antoinette? I just watched it. I loved the costumes (it did just win an acadamy award for costume design), but it had no story line. I especially thought this after reading more of the history of Marie Antoinette. They really could have done some more exciting scenes with the raiding of Versaille. They also could have showed us a little more of the political drama and the events leading up to her beheading (which wasn't in the movie). It was worth the time for the costumes and interesting to see how extravagantly they might have lived.
We have also recently seen The Prestige and The Illusionist. I liked them both a lot. they both really kept you guessing until the end. I will say that The Illusionist was darker, primarily because he was dealing with ghosts. I don't like to think about, see or hear any ghost stories, they really creep me out. This didn't bother me too much and it was just a short part of the film.

I liked The Illusionist- it was entertaining- adn kept me guessing how it would end. i wanted to see Marie Antionette but heard it wasn't that great in content- but the costumes were beautiful from what I saw and on the oscars. Thanks for the reviews- its nice to hear what your peers think rather than some movie review specialist!
I haven't seen any of them. I would like to see "The Prestige". "The Illusionist" seems took spooky for me. I can deal with alien spooky because I know its not real but people spooky is to much for me. I like to see costumes in the time of Marie Antoinette too. Its to much of a chick flick for David though. I'll have to rent it later, maybe. Have you seen "The Bridge to Terabithia"? David and I saw it for a date night. It was really good. Its better for older children.
