Memoirs of a Geisha fails to capture the essence of suppressed emotions, instead this falls more into cliché and leaves viewer’s unaffected. Think baked potatoes without the toppings. For a holiday screen romance, try the flipside – an Asian’s perspective of American and a love story with Ang Lee’s Brokeback Mountain
