From Toronto Star: overall, Fair (Outstanding; Excellent; Very good; Good; Fair; Poor; Awful)评价不高。 A fan dance without feeling, Memoirs of a Geisha might be that rare movie that must be held accountable to its source novel. In bringing Arthur Golden's 1997 bestseller about geisha mystique to cinematic life, director Rob Marshall should have paid more heed to the original text. Thay have sanded away many of the fine lines that made the novel such an engrossing read. There are moments to savour in Memoirs, such as the scenes where Sayuri performs her first geisha dance, and where she first attempts the seduction trick of stopping a man cold with a single glance, and these reveal that Marshall's flair for the telling moment hasn't completely abandoned him. Pity there isn't more of it, enough to remind us of the book's art and depth.
