I really like Emma Watson, but I totally agree. Even in interviews, it seems like she extols too much thinking and control over how she wants her characters to be perceived. She needs to let things happen naturally especially in acting to give her characters more variety.Katyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00287429151542133314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3990332416861666709.post-47069105684348980992017-05-04T14:47:01.207-05:002017-05-04T14:47:01.207-05:00Hmmm...I opted for the Lost City of Z instead of s...Hmmm...I opted for the Lost City of Z instead of seeing this one, and it looks like I *may* have made the right decision. I thought the trailer made it look like one of those late 90s/early 2000s big brother thrillers...and I was okay with that. But with Hanks aboard? I secretly hoped it would be much better.<br /><br />Apparently not.m.brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14457418128925003938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3990332416861666709.post-73057004678373888562017-05-04T06:48:22.394-05:002017-05-04T06:48:22.394-05:00He's okay but he's just kind of being Tom ...He's okay but he's just kind of being Tom Hanks.
