Brokeback Mountain is quite overrated. I think people are giving it a little more credit than it rightly deserves because it's a very daring movie. It most definitely has some problems with it that you are not alone on. While Heath Ledger's performance was great, he mumbles a little too much, and when you actually can hear him, his accent sounds a little too forced and unrealistic; not that I'm putting him down in any way: I respect him heaps and he gave a great performance. While I heard it was a sad movie, and while I believed it would be sad, I was let down by something that really bugged me towards the end; Ennis didn't seem to care all that greatly about Jack's death, especially when he has shown to care greatly about Jack concerning about some quite minor things. It is overrated, but that doesn't in any way mean it's a bad film, and I do truly love it; it's one of my favourites ever and will buy it the second it's released on Blu.
