I thought this movie was a wild ride. I loved it. It was great fun to watch Keira Knightly in this role. I thought she was very convincing. It is shot in a very different style but I thought it fit very well with the movie. Based on a real person but obviously not a completely accurate portrayal of Domino. I thought it was a great movie. The three main characters and their relationships with each other were very engaging.Domino is not your typical female character. The sexual tension between "Domino and Choco is entertaining. No, it's not totally believable but if you are looking for some fun entertainment this is a great movie. I say give it a chance. See it and enjoy.

The people who have made negative comments about this movie have probably not read the book. I don't think I've seen a movie that so closely follows a book. Yes, there are some minor differences but Margaret Mitchell wrote a book with some wonderful characters and they are definitely brought to life in this movie. I don't think the casting could have been any better. Yes, Scarlett is annoying and spoiled but that is exactly how she is in the book. Clark Gable is Rhett Butler. Perfect. He is exactly as he is described in the book also. The supporting character/actors are also excellent. I've watched other older movies and find it hard to get into them, but I don't have that problem with this movie. That could be because I love the book and watching this is just like reading the book. The look of the movie doesn't seem that old fashioned. Perhaps that is because it is not about special effects but about the characters and they are what bring this movie and story to life. This is one great story. If you haven't...... SEE IT!!!!!!

Unlike most eveyone who has commented I have not seen the original. I will try to find it and watch it someday. In the meantime, I have found this series to be intriguing. All the reasons people don't like are what keep drawing me back. I want to find out more about these strange people and this place. It is very quirky, what with the giant anteater and hearing the animal thoughts. It is very strange and so I keep tuning in to see what happens next and what it is all about. Hopefully some of these questions will be answered by the end. I am liking it more and more and can't wait for next weeks show. If you like S. King and shows that are quirky and different tune in and give it a try. I hope you like it. I do.
