The Libertine (2004)
3/10
Over-hyped, overestimated, overdone
21 August 2006
First of all, let me start by saying that the only reason I didn't give this movie a 1 is because the acting was good. However, without an engaging plot and with the overextended monologues and dialogues, as well as the dreary sets and general lack of beauty except for some very brief scenes, this movie is not in the least bit entertaining. I watched all the way through waiting for something to happen, but nothing really did. To be honest, it's very boring, and not even the very fine Johnny Depp or the touted importance of the subject-matter could save it.

Watch it only if you're an insomniac. It might work better for you than Lunesta.
