    Atonement

    Reviewed by

    I was looking forward to this movie, and it just did not deliver the goods. OK, I liked the way the story was told (with some different perspective flashbacks) That's what gets this movie a 6/10. If it wasn't for that, it would have been a 4 in my book. The pace almost put me to sleep, and I love period pieces and love stories. I guess I just didn't care for the storyline progression. The acting wasn't as top notch as I expected. I don't know where all the award hype is coming from. And don't get me wrong: I love Keira Knightley. But I found her performance only ok. And James McAvoy was no better. I just expected much more moving performances. I don't want to write an overly lengthy review. I just wanted and expected much more from this movie, and was left quite disappointed. Hope this movie moved you more than it moved me.
