The Tourist

I've to thank Johnny Depp. If not for him, DC probably wouldn't even consider watching this movie. :P

Finally seen Depp's real face... not exactly clean shaven face but clearer than Captain Jack Sparrow (Pirates of the Caribbean), Willy Wonka (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory), Sweeny Todd, Mad Hatter (Alice in the Wonderland) and Edward Scissorhands! Even so, I'll probably not be able to recognize him. Hehe, unlike DC, I'm just that bad with faces! :P

Anyways, the story is rather slow and plot is simple with a little twist at the end. I like it, Beautiful Angelina Jolie and Scenic Venice rocks! Not a bad way to spend the new year eve afternoon at all... ;)
