The Majestic was a video choice, one of those 'I don't know what to rent.' I picked up the dvd, not expecting too much. That was probably the best way to watch it. It was good, not amazing, it might not stand up to repeated viewings, but definitely worth the rental price.
The entire way through the film I kept thinking to myself that this was a Jimmy Stewart film. It had a 'Capra' tone to it, in both it's look and plot. Carey does a good job, and the supporting cast is excellent. The film has a great look to it, with all of the period acurately shown.
Would I strongly recommend it, yes. But don't expect any high speed chases, strong sexual content or deep laughs. Instead plan to ease back into some Capra and Stewart.
