I thought Italy was the worst, but it seems from what ppl are saying about the movie, it is the only good bit! :icon_rolleyes:

It's a hormonal highball for all those post-menopausal divorcees that are afraid of plastic surgery.
Other than that it's crap:icon_biggrin:

Much too charitable if you ask me--this production was dreamed up in an accountant's office.
Nothing at all to do with travel or enlightenment.
That's a disc rental fee and a hundred or so minutes of my life completely wasted.
My friend watched the movie and then complained to me that I had told her Ubud was not close to a beach..... I was stumped and did not know how to reply.
For my part I fell asleep watching the movie but that has more to do with the fact that I watched on a flight over from.... yes Bali. I missed the whole section on Bali. I like Julia Roberts but will admit I've seen her in better movies.

Dedoo said .. "The book is called non fiction, but there are many stories of imagination in this book." That is exactly right and well put
(he would know) !
I ended up reading the book on a visit to the states a few years before they filmed the movie ... just got to say .. I was pretty amused when I
found out who the main subjects were & how they were portrayed ... :icon_rolleyes:
In the biz they call it "artistic license" .. or stretching the truth :highly_amused:

Late to the game here, I know, but for me the worst part of the movie *was* the Bali part. How can Julia R get practically fluent in Italian so quickly, yet still not manage to pronounce "Ketut" correctly? I kinda felt the movie was a bit disrespectful in that regard, but I guess that's mainly because Bali is a big part of who I feel I am now (trying not to sound all inner-peace etc, but it's still true). I haven't read the book (and doubt now that I will) but I hope it was better than the film. Personally, I didn't like it.
No negatives allowed, so I cannot speak up. The administrator has forbidden to give negative comments.
Which admin was that then? The book was garbage, the movie worse and J. Roberts looks more "horsey" every time she opens her enormous gob.
If you want something positive: I'm positive the whole thing was strictly for menopausal American "gee whiz" bimbos whose vibrator was on the blink or had committed suicide.
It says so in the title of the thread : no negatives.
I thoroughly and fully agree with you on this subject.
By the way, heaps of tourists still fall in this trap : they run to Ketut Lyer, the "real paranormal guy" and get the same crap from him : you will be happy, sometimes not happy, 50 dollar please, next one. Hallo, sometimes you will not be happy. 50 dollar please.

It has now been scientifically proven that ulcers are caused by a bacterium and not by stress. An Australian doctor has received the Nobel Prize for these findings.
