    I hated this movie. I don't know why...the cast was awesome, but I never got into it. It was just really boring.

    Ada: [voiceover] "Dear Mr. Inman, I began by counting the days, then the months. I don't count on anything anymore except the hope that you will return, and the silent fear that in the years since we saw each other, this war, this awful war, will have changed us both beyond all reckoning."

    Based on the novel by Charles Frazier, Anthony Minghella's star-studded Cold Mountain is a sweeping tale set in the final days of the American Civil War. Jude Law stars as Inman, a young soldier who, despite an injury, is struggling to make his way home to Cold Mountain, NC, where his beloved Ada (Nicole Kidman) awaits. In Inman's absence, Ada befriends Ruby (Renée Zellweger), who helps her keep up her late father's farm. Meanwhile, in his travels, Inman encounters a menagerie of interesting folks. Also starring Natalie Portman, Giovanni Ribisi, Donald Sutherland, and Philip Seymour Hoffman.

    Sprawling historical epic based on a book. This tale has Nicole Kidman and Jude Law as people who meet cute, kiss and then he goes off to fight in the Civil War and she sits around and longs for him for most of the rest of the movie. Sounds pretty soapy, but the film is actualy quite good.. owing to the strong acting by Kidman, Law, Renee Zellweger (as a woman who helps Kidman on the farm) and a solid group of supporting players in minor roles (including Natalie Portman, Donald Sutherland, Phillip Seymour Hoffman and many others). The production is also top notch, with good cinematography, production design and all other elements. Keeps you involved and interested. A solidly produced epic.

    Cold Mountain is a very good film starring Jude Law, Nicole Kidman, and Renee Zellweger. Set during the civil war a young couple (kidman and law) are torn apart due to the war and him leaving to join it. During it she meets an off the wall loner (zellweger) whom helps her create a life by herlself....what love will do to someone...a movie worth seeing

    Plenty of talk about shitting - funny but not enough to make it seem like a comedy. Good civil war epic. Strangely, not too biased. You'd expect otherwise. The acting is powerful and every character brims with personality.

    Make a point of seeing it.

    Beautiful, compelling, wonderfully acted if a little cold. No pun intended. Gorgeously realised. Portman is heartbreaking. She is the actress of her generation. But what is Jack White doing in this film? Otherwise a supporting cast of superb semi-name actors. Ray Winstone is eeevil! but sweet actor Charlie Hunman is pure eeevill! Jeez man he gave me chills down my spine. Pity Kidman and Law couldn't even raise a single sympathy vote. This mountain needed heating up a little.

    Love expressed itself in heroism and determination through the crumbling confederacy and varying obstacles and pressures of time. Both Ada and Inman have their stories—bound together by their calm resolve to see each other through.
    I’ve not seen it in the theatre but have bought the DVD—I tell you, it’s worth it.

    An absolutely amazing and extremely moving and emotional film. A MUST SEE! This film has a very beautiful musical score, and contains some of the best acting (esp. by Renee Zelweger) that i have ever seen. The film is so moving and fast paced that the two and a half hours seem very short, and when the film ends, it leaves the viewer internally and emotionally moved. The visuals of this film are mesmirizing, and I must say again that It is a MUST SEE!

    This film is a MUST-SEE. It's beautifully crafted, assembled, and absolutely mesmerizing in all aspects of filmmaking techniques and style. The music score and soundtracks are so appropriate locked into the events and the moods of the characters. And the film's title? It does project its allegorical appeal
