This movie gets deep into Garcia Marquez characters and develops them true to the novel's creation. The casting for Florentino Ariza was perfect. I enjoyed seeing Colombia's beautiful city of Cartagena, the lush Andes and the placid waters of the Magdalena... Full review

The Wisdom of Love in the Time of Cholera....overwrought romantic imagery would have it, of a love affair's possible continuation in the afterlife....The film is competent, at times moving....Still, the film is worth seeing....Leguizamo's performance is particularly interesting..... ... Full Review

Mike Newell 's Love in the Time of Cholera finds Bardem mining the other end of the emotional spectrum, playing a lovelorn character who spends a lifetime making love to every woman except the one he truly loves.
For sure, it's something that any actor can be happy with, to work in two movies that are so different from each other.

Director Mike Newell ("Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire") needed to spend more time with this material or have a better script than he got from The Pianist's Ronald Harwood.
And Newell's technique to age the characters is laughable.

That said, it is a spectacularly visual film, sincere and noble in its efforts to honor the author's intent.
Humor helps keep the long film lively, but it feels a little stilted, and struggles to interpret the magic and power of the tale.
