Late nineteenth century Cuba. Dawn. At the docks, Luis (Antonio Banderas) waits for his American mail-order bride. But, his wait seems to be in vain. Then, magically, she appears--Julia (Angelina Jolie). And, she is beautiful, unlike the woman whose picture she sent. But Luis had lied as well--he wrote that he was only a clerk in the coffee company that he actually owns. In spite of their deceptions, they marry immediately. They are blissfully happy, although Julia has her demons. She has nightmares, she ignores her sister's letters, and--mysteriously--won't open her trunk. Her sister sends an unnerving detective to check that she arrived. Still unsatisfied, her sister arrives herself. That's when Julia disappears with the money in Luis's bank accounts, instantaneously transforming Luis's dream into a nightmare. <br> <br> Scriptwriter/director Michael Cristofer explores sexual obsession and deception in ORIGINAL SIN. The sumptuous thriller, based on Cornell Woolrich's classic noir novel, has elegant, lu... Less

This entertaining look at the story of the from-the-get-go rivalry of Apple founder Steve Jobs (Noah Wyle) and Microsoft pioneer Bill Gates (Anthony Michael Hall) provides equal parts laughs and insight, set to an energized soundtrack. Told from the points of view of Jobs's and Gates's collaborators--Steve Woziak and Paul Ballmer, respectively--the film intelligently charts each camp's bumpy ride from garage experimentation to industry domination.

Angelina Jolie, NAKED!!

bymattjoe Aug 6, 2001
140 Helpfuls 141 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Angelina Jolie gets naked. Convincing story, held my interest
Cons If it were another hour longer, directors could have tied up loose ends
Recommended it? Yes

I went to Original Sin for one shallow reason, I wished to see boobs on the big screen, and not just any boobs, but the breasts of Tomb Raider's own Angelina Jolie.
Call my original sin oogling or something, but not coveting my neighbors wife, as Billy Bob Thornton doesn't live near me.

Tawdry Fun

Pros JOLIE IS NAKED. The movie is pretty good too.
Cons Too racy for some.
Recommended it? Yes

Original Sin is bound to be the underrated bomb of the summer. The film has nothing about it that will make it a blockbuster or a classic. It is however the very definition of a 'guilty pleasure.' It's so racy, dirty, and jaunty, not to mention a great looking film, that I couldn't help but adore... Read full review »

Pros Engaging story, very informative
Cons Those who aren't interested in computers probably wouldn't give it a chance
Recommended it? Yes

I have to say that I was really excited to be invited to DavidK93's write-off in celebration of his second anniversary at Epinions. I guess it was because I immediately knew what I wanted to review. Having to pick a movie from a former brat packer, it was no choice for me to go with Anthony Michael... Read full review »

Pros Fascinating depictions of character traits, and historical accuracy.
Cons Didn't delve into certain specifics as much as might be desired.
Recommended it? Yes

There they go, down the bunny trail. The bunny trail to massive, computer-fueled riches, I mean.

Steve Jobs and Bill Gates are two of the Information Age's archetypical players, so it's only right that they be portrayed in the medium most suited to the Age: audio-visual. Because,... Read full review »
