Memoirs of a Geisha

Memoirs of a Geisha is a pretty movie. Gorgeous, even.

But that’s really all it is. The plot isn’t terribly engaging, the characters who aren’t loathsome are fairly uninteresting and the movie feels two or three times as long as it really is.

This is a rental, nothing more.

1. Ok, I agree with you on the movie – it was gorgeous though! However, I LOVED the book and was disappointed that the movie did not do it justice. Sorry you did not read the book first; but maybe now, you would not want to.

2. I agree with Mom. The movie doesn’t do the book justice. The movie should have been a good-quality (eg. “Roots” or “Shogun”) miniseries instead.
