I don't love it, but I don't hate it, either. It's another movie that suffers from the "Was Keanu Reeves really your best choice?" problem.

I had not much liked Coppola's Dracula when it came out but Brannagh's Frankenstein made Coppola look like Val Lewton.<br /><br />One of my co-workers hated Frankenstein so much that he immediately went to see another movie to get the taste out of his mouth. He saw Immortal Beloved, and he really really hated it! What are the chances, he said, that I would walk out of the second-worst movie ever made and right into the worst movie ever made?<br /><br />I've always wondered if Immortal Beloved is really that bad. But I was never quite curious enough to watch it.
