serendipity (1 out of 10)


Serendipity, a movie about true love and fates way of bringing two people together through its clues and signs made a disappointing movie to me.  This movie took place in New York where two people meet and believe that they're soul mates, but put there love in fates hands to bring them together, if they are really meant to be.  Although this movie had very good actors, I already knew what was going to happen through out the whole movie. 

I didn't like this movie because there has been many others like it. I sat through the whole thing already knowing the ending. It had no mystery and did not make your heart jump. For example, when we first started watching this movie I had no idea what it was going to be about, but in the first five minutes when the man and the woman meet for the first time you already new it was a love story where in the end no matter what, they would end up together. I never got excited to see what would happen. I would say it was very boring and plain. 

I did however like the actors in this movie. I thought John Cusack and kate Beckinsale did a great job and are two of my favorite actors and actresses today. I think what makes a good movie is having a good story line and having mystery. Everyone wants to get caught up in the suspense, but this movie lacked that. I think watching this movie once would be enough but twice I would fall asleep.
