Another "W" review
Yesterday (maybe two days ago?) I pointed to Ebert's review of the new Oliver Stone movie, "W" -- a film that explores various aspects of the current president's life. Ebert found it to be a more accurate representation than some of Stone's other movies, and gave it 4 (of 4) stars.
Today, however, I read Ann Hornaday's review from Washington Post's webpage, and her response was not at all similar. She likens the movie to an extended SNL skit, and says "it's a scattershot attempt at stylized portraiture that plays like a half-baked editorial cartoon."
Needless to say, she didn't give it four stars.
