Should be renamed The Poop Stain.
I'll still never understand how anyone could find Nichole Kidman sexy - naked or not. Top that with her boinking Anthony Hopkins.. ick.
She yells at him several times in the movie, and he stands there like some special ed student that just pooped his pants. I mean.. I love Hopkins as an actor, think he's amazing.. but dude.. This isn't Hearts in Atlantis.. you're not a vegetable having a seizure.
SPOILER ON
And I'm sorry, but Anthony Hopkins is not black. Yes, shocking I know.. but he's not. And he doesn't pass for a black man. It's not believable that he had a black family and is Michael Jackson's twin. It's stupid.
The way they (Hopkins/Kidman) die towards the end is stupid too. There's no point. There's no action. There's no crescendo. There's no shock. There's no feeling about it what so ever.
SPOILER OFF
Ed Harris does some good acting as does Gary Sinise (sp?). But I was completely disappointed with Hopkins in this flick. Being that I'm a huge non-fan of Kidman, I won't attempt to rate her acting ability. But if you like her, you'll be happy to know there's some boobs shown.
The movie felt long (half-way through I was hoping it was almost over) and boring. The story wasn't one you gave a crap about and could spend the rest of your life w/o seeing the end of. There's one scene (boxing) in the whole movie that was worth watching. The rest sucked.

One star for those that like Kidman's boobies.
(Yes, I was dragged to this by an evil female)
