Review of Ulee's Gold

Ulee's Gold (1997)
6/10
6 on a scale of 10
2 January 1999
I cannot imagine how the average of the first 389 voters gave this an 8.0. Are you people nuts???? This was only as good as a 6 because it didn't have any glaring, miserable problems.

However, if you want a movie to put you to sleep, this is it. Within 30 seconds I was commenting to my friend about how slow it was. 112 minutes seemed like an eternity.

Also, the plot was very weak. The acting was very marginal. The production values were nearly nonexistent. No name actors, no special effects, no staging. And, the music and sound were weakly done too!

The more I think about it, the more I think it probably should have been a 5. It certainly won't make my collection of 1200 movies! And, Peter Fonda for an Oscar??? Give me a break!
