Winter's Tale (2014)

Genre: Fantasy / Romance
Directed by: Akiva Goldsman
Cast: Colin Farrell, Jennifer Connelly, William Hurt, Russell Crowe
Running Time: 118 minutes

 


Peter Lake is a thief that decides to leave his boss Pearly Soames’ gang. Pearly is a supernatural demon that raised Peter with the same superpowers. When his protégé leaves, Pearly starts hunting him down, but Peter escapes on a magical white horse. In the process of escaping, Peter finds the love of his life, Beverly, a fragile woman that suffers from consumption.

This film, which is based on the novel of the same name, written by Mark Helprin, offers a good visual presentation, but the story just never hooked me. I found the characters uninteresting and the story simply too silly to care about.
