Summary: HUGE LET DOWN!
Review: I couldn't wait to see this movie.
Sean Penn is a great actor. I found
80% of this movie to be boring! I
wouldn't watch it again.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Seen Better
Review: Oscar nominations,wonderful cast,incredible director,compelling story...wasn't that great. One of my friends kept telling me that I'd love this film. That it was one of the greatest movies ever. I have to disagree. The cast of this film were quite convincing in their potrayals of characters,Sean Penn especially playing another darkly,intense character. My heart broke when I saw the scene of him finding out that his daughter was indeed killed,being held back by plenty of police officers in an attempt to get to her. Sean Penn's scenes were the only reason this film should even be watched. He deserved the Academy Award win for this film. Yes,you go on a weaving of story plots with an ending that may surprise you but there's really no substance in my mind. This is a film that I recommend you rent and watch only once...if even that.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Been Done Better
Review: I saw a movie that was kind of like this, except better. It was called Sleepers. Better cast, better plot, better version of a similar story. Don't waste your time with Penn, Robbins, and Bacon in Mystic River. Check out Pitt, DeNiro, Hoffman, and Bacon in Sleepers.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Book is sooo much better..
Review: Please read the book first....otherwise you risk losing a great read because once you sit through this film you'll no longer wish to read it. I read the book, then saw the flick at the theater, maybe I was expecting too much considering how much I enjoyed the book but it was really, really bad. Please avoid.Girlfriend didn't like, parents either.
