Review:  "Winter's Tale" is absolute fiction pulp begins with a voiceover to this - This is followed by some important questions that begin with "That yes" And the voice reveals the "who, once upon a time there there were no stars at all. "-" we are all connected .. magic is all around us, just look and there is a model for all. "
If the link and a link to the item is ready to be splashed, the film begins in a very turbulent 1895-2014 sequences inserted keel.

The first scene shows New York in 2014 to enter a lousy human Grand central station looking for a certain type of tracks. The film peppered until 1895, in which two Russian immigrants were deported from Ellis Island because of husband respiratory diseases. Determined to make a better life for her son, the child in a model of the ship and ship to shore. At the same time, the story jumps forward to the present, with a bronze plaque with "City of Justice" engraved on it.

If human claws on the copper plate, the story jumps to 1916, when the baby grew up in Peter Lake (Collin Farrell). Waives his mentor and one of the most feared gangsters in New York, Pearly Soames (Russell Crowe) and his running henchmen. Pearly Soames is actually a devil incarnate in Lucifer Service (Will Smith).

Lake escapes his clutches jumping on a white horse that could fly and it went quickly into a rich editor (William Hurt) Isaac Penn fly home, but finds himself unexpectedly eighteen years daughter Beverly Penn (Jessica Brown Findlay), and falls love with it.

On the performance level, Farrell faith and surprising stage presence shows "Winter's Tale" pulse. It is in each image and convincingly portrayed Peter Lake. The chemistry between Farrell and Findlay is intense and enigmatic.

Eva Marie Saint in the editor centennial and Beverly's younger sister is beautiful. Features and exuberant young lake nearly a hundred years later, his age in the movie of the universe defies logic.

Russell Crowe seems to be influenced by Bollywood. Their reactions, accessories and chin is often seen Salman Khan.

There is more to fiction or romance. There is also a long discussion on the metaphysical nature of justice, as well as a love song to the city of New York winters, and self-love. All this would not make sense to the logical mind. And the end is perhaps ambiguous.

Great care is taken to create the configuration Shohan production designer and visual effects supervisor Richard Hollander. The variation in the closet Michael Kaplan testified also dictated by the centuries.

There are lots of CGI that combine perfectly with the image of Caleb Deschanel. He grabs delicious winter in all its glory with soft lenses and directional lighting. His images are truly heavenly and pure poetry.

This film is the first feature film by Akiva Goldsman. But coming from the man who wrote the Oscar-winning "A Beautiful Mind", this film is a disappointment that the fundamental flaw is in the script.
