Review of Truly Madly Deeply

Everyone has their own "worse film ever made" and this one has been the top of my list since I saw it way back in about 1992. The first problem with the movie is that none of the characters are particularly affable nor interesting. Juliet Stevenson is both ingratiating and infuriating. You feel like screaming,"get over it, you annoying creature!". Its not that I am devoid of sensitivity but the condescending sentimentality is just so awful. The script is tedious and Stevenson is simply awful. Her annoying mannerisms and cliché interpretation is woeful.Stevenson is in my opinion dreadful in this movie. Alan Rickman does not walk through the film he dawdles.I cannot understand why some think it is better than "Ghost". Ghost was a charming little movie with a delightful performance from Whoopie Goldberg. It tugged at the heart strings but its sentimentality was never as mawkish as this dribble. Rickman is just awful, his performance is shallow and wooden.It is a bad performance by an actor with no screen presence.It is ponderous and boring. I know people liked it but for me it is close to the worse movie of all time. At least some of Ed Wood's movies were so bad they were funny. This is simply bad.
