I'd heard some good things about this movie and was quite eager to see it. Big, big disappointment!! The action falls between a bad thriller and a completely undeveloped love story. Ralph Fiennes' performance is poor, it gives you the impression that he knew from the very beginning what his fate would be and accepted it without any fight. You can't feel any suffering from Fiennes' acting, though I imagine his character suffers a great deal. Nor can you feel - let alone understand - the love between the two main characters or Sandy's love for Tessa. I couldn't understand why the title of the film had anything to do with a gardener. OK, I understand that was Justin's hobby, but it doesn't define his character in any way; it looks like his gardening is used more for lengthening (abolutely unnecessarily) the movie. A poor movie in all respects. I had expected much more from it, got nothing...

I am an (at best) accidental soap opera watcher. Sometimes I watch almost half of episode, and from time to time can find something enjoyable. I live in Portugal and tried to figure what was Floribella about. Jesus, I've never seen something worse. Always the same faces (the main characters are simply awful as they stubbornly keep the same expression for hours in a row), nothing credible and unbelievably bad acting. Not to mention that "she" even sings, although the sounds she produces (screeches?) bare no resemblance whatsoever with music! If you are healthy and want to keep it that way, avoid "Floribella" like plague. You can certainly find better things to do with your time...

I liked when I saw the first episodes. Indeed, quite different from "E.R." and with a character - Dr. Gregory House - well developed and almost believable. However, after seeing more than 10 episodes, I started getting bored, as the each story looks like a copy of the previous: always a young, apparently healthy patient, arrives with a strange disease whose cure nobody can find. House rarely sees the patient, always runs into some trouble (or conflict) with the patient's relatives or friends, etc., and then... a miracle happens: out of something untold (hidden by the patient, if you wish) or of the environment surrounding the patient, the diagnostic emerges. And, of course, House is always right and the others wrong. As I said, at the beginning, is likable. Afterwards, is way too predictable.
