Dion Beebe's lush cinematography, John Myhre's stunning production
design, Colleen Atwood's brilliant costumes, John Williams' stirring
score and a superb international cast can't take away the fact that the
film adaptation of Arthur Golden's best-selling novel, "Memoirs of
a Geisha," falls somewhere between a "Cinderella" fable
and a really good episode of "Knots Landing." Which is
to say, it doesn't do the richly detailed novel justice.

Take Ah, the Christmas movie
season. What better time for Hollywood to serve up a big prestige
picture designed to open our eyes to the quaint cultures of other lands?
This year: All aboard the Orient Express for "Memoirs of a
Geisha"! This is a very serious, very long, very pretty picture
about the life of a geisha in pre-World War II Japan, starring three of
the biggest actresses in the world -- they happen to be from Hong Kong
and Malaysia, but let's not get too hung up on the details.
"Memoirs
of a Geisha is worthwhile on many levels, although it lacks the depth of
feeling that would have elevated it from a good movie to a romance for
the ages." - James
Berardinelli
