Lawrence of Arabia: Disc 1

American Beauty
A shocking and funny look at suburban life, American Beauty stars Kevin Spacey and Annette Bening as a couple struggling to endure a stale marriage, unfulfilling careers and a rebellious teen daughter.

Netflix Review
Mention the phrase "martial arts film" to most moviegoers, and visions of badly dubbed actors and hyperkinetic chop-socky moves dance through their heads.

I found it hard to follow because of the subtitles. If you are not on top of the movie at all times, you would miss what is being said. I would rather watch a movie that I can listen to, not have to read every word that is being said.

I didn't like this movie at all. I had absolutely no idea what it was about. I watched it twice to see if I had missed something, but it was the same both times.

Ok, so maybe i am just not a sophisticated moviegoer. That being said. I did't appreciate all the "under the surface" storyline stuff. i thought the fight sequences were very good, but I didn't get the whole Peter Pan flying ability(with no pixies dust??) The relationship the female charecter ... Complete Review
