Film Freak: The Painted Veil

Another film with two huge leads, Ed Norton and Australia's own Naomi Watts.

This film was made all the way back in 2006, think the year Amy Winehouse's CD "Back to Black" was released. It has taken a while to get to Australia and unfortunately I don't think it was worth the wait.

Edward Norton is terrific but plays a highly unlikable character as does his wife in the film Naomi Watts.

This film could be great, heart breaking and so much more than it appears now in 2008.

Naomi Watts by the end just annoys the FLIP out of you and you can't wait to vacate the cinema.

Maybe one for the TV Sunday night movie, at the least the scenery (filmed in China) is spectacular.

The Painted Veil rates One and a half stars.
