The Doors
The Movie Man - wrote on 05/19/09
The Doors is an interesting story that ends up being one big disaster. Oliver Stone's direction is blurry and his screenplay(which he wrote with Randall Jahnson.) is surprisingly sloppy and weak. Val Kilmer gives one of his best performances as Jim Morrison and Meg Ryan is good as his love interest. The film never gives enough information about Jim Morrisons life to make you care about him and because of that, the film seems to go on forever, even at it's overlong running time.
Note: I saw this movie on Television, so the uncut version might be better.
