Gilliam is gold....!

Rating: 8/10 (6 June 2005)

Just watched this movie again last night, nearly ten years after I saw it when released! Gosh but does time fly! I'm pleased to say that 12 monkeys more than holds up to a second viewing. Great performance from Brucie, in a role that was completely different to anything he had done previously. I was never sure if what he was experiencing was his imagination or reality. And Brad, who is the epitome of insane genius! Didn't he get nominated for best supporting actor for this role? Not sure if he won, or what, but the man played crazy like nobody's business! Former python Terry Gilliam is at the helm and once again crafts a quirky, unsettling look which is present throughout the picture. A true masterpiece which will make your brain do backflips!!
