9/10
Best Movie Of The Year So Far
13 March 2006
I have to say, I went to see the Hills Have Eyes, but ended up seeing this instead. It had a good cast, but I had an inkling it would be atrocious. Man Alive, How wrong was I!? The previous reviewer (yes Claire from Brighton, that's you!) must have been blind and deaf because I found it exceptionally difficult to pick a fault in the film. Fast, Witty and funny dialogue really make the 2 hours fly in. The plot, granted, was confusing in the middle, but everything came together perfectly towards the end. Perfect casting throughout, Liu and Freeman and Kingsley all give some fine performances, Hartnett suits being the protagonist with all odds against him and Bruce Willis breaks from the mould of playing the same character in every damn film he's in, so he gets points for that. Brilliant ending and opening as well.

So please, don't pay any attention to the negative reviews, this film is excellent, and you really get more than you paid for.

Go Now.
