Double Indemnity

This movie was the first film noir that we have watched in class. I think this is only one of the two or so film noirs that I have ever seen so I don't have much to compaire it to. The other one that I have seen is Sin City. I thought that that movie was awesome first of all and was probably the best movie of the year. I think that it was much different from Double Indemnity because of the fact that it was made in our time where we have much lower censorship codes. The movie we watched in class was a very clean cut movie. I can't say that I liked it for a few reasons. One reason that I didn't like it was because like nothing happened in it. As I thought back upon the movie after watching it I thought my myself...what did I just watch? I could barely think what I just wtached because there was so little action and actually happenings. Another reason that I didn't like watching this movie was that it seemed much to scripted. I thought that the characters just seemed like they were reading their lines instead of acting the part. Overall I didn't like it that much and hope to see a better on this time around.
