I just finished watching The Wicker Man. This is the new version with Nicholas Cage. I’d heard from several people that this movie wasn’t any good. I’d have to say I disagree. I rather liked the movie.

The only problem I found is that, as a practicing Wiccan, The Wicker Man portrays those of us who follow the old ways in a horrific light. It is no wonder that people still bring up images of things such as sacrifices, etc when they hear that one is Wiccan.

Other than that, the movie was very good. Subtle things that if you catch them, begin to help the viewer understand what is going on are scattered about the movie. It was rather slow paced, but at only 102 minutes, it really wasn’t a long movie.

I’d have to give it 3 1/2 out of 5 stars.
