Grey
Owl Movie Review:
Oh
goody, I've waited oh many a year to see a movie like this.
I mean what an exciting premise: 007 in pigtails!
Gey
Owl tells the story of a half-caste American called Archie
Grey Owl who is played by Pierce Brosnan and directed by
Richard "Dickie" Attenborough. Grey Owl who goes
from being a trapper guide to one of the world's most foremost
vconservationists. But hey we are in luvvy movie here so
no hard hitting story oh no we need a twist, Grey Owl has
a deep dark secret....
Oh
no I'm not gonna reveal that secret just yet, wait for it.
Pierce Brosnan is Irish and whatever way you are gonna look
at this there is no way he sounds like or likes like an
American Indian. Instead it looks more like Roger Moore
would do dressing up in a disguise as Bond. Yes, that cheesy.
But why IS Brosnan in thsi movie, well after Bond, he is
quite a big name star and big name star's do help projects
get made. Attenborough was apparently having trouble getting
Grey Owl made so if Brosnan comes on board and helps you
get the money what do you say, you don't say oh you're probably
not right for this part, oh no you let him do it and see
if he can carry it.
And
this is what is wrong with this movie, it is just plain
old dull. Lovely scenery, lovely filming and everything
is handled with reverence as if it was a treasured book
instead of a subject for a movie, the central part of the
word movie being MOVE, which is something this movie doesn't.
Richard
Attenborough obciously holds the subject material with the
most reverence as it is fault that the movie never really
gets into and involved in the subject matter, instead glossing
over it with a tint of polish.
If
you fall asleep at this movie, don't be surprised it won't
be because you're tired it's because it's boring
