The Affair of the Necklace (2001)

Could have been great.

[11 January 2003]

From what I hear, the studio gave up on this film because too many stupid Americans couldn't figure out the plot. The film seems unpolished because it is. It was abandoned too late in the process, so the studio decided to put it out anyway.

I really wish the common viewer would have been ignored, and the movie given the finish it deserves. It's beautiful, and could have been so much better. A lot of time was obviously put into it; I have to wonder why it was abandoned so easily.

If I was any of the people involved with this movie, I'd be embarassed, simply because it was put out for public viewing without really being finished off correctly.

Other than that, it was wonderful, for what it was.

This not only was Van Damms' worst movie, it might have been one of the worst movies I've ever seen. I found myself fast-forwarding to the fight scenes and they were not even worth watching. Thank goodness I borrowed this from a neighbor so it didn't cost me anything except the time I wasted watching if.
