Movie Review: Winter's Tale (2014)

“Winter’s Tale” is a really, really weird movie. It wastes a great cast and beautiful cinematography to tell one of the strangest and dumbest fantasy stories ever put on screen. I’m not even sure who to be angry with; director Akiva Goldsman for making this mess, or author Mark Helprin for writing the original story to begin with.

I’m honestly not entirely sure I even fully understood what the hell was happening, so please, bare with me as I try to make sense of it all. The story revolves around Peter Lake (Colin Farrell), a burglar living in 1916 New York, who falls in love with the beautiful Beverly Penn (Jessica Brown Findlay), a young woman with only a few months left to live. Peter is simultaneously being tracked down by his old boss Pearly Soames (Russell Crowe), who has a score to settle. When Beverly dies and Peter gets thrown off a bridge, he finds himself in present-day New York with no memory of who he was. Peter has been kept alive for some reason, and it’s up to him to figure out why. The story involves time travel, reincarnation, a magical flying horse who’s actually a dog, angels, and demons. In short, it makes no sense.
