The Balance of Terror

Rating: 9/10 (4 May 2000)

My friend said after she had seen American Beauty she hated that in this movie, nothing is balanced. But she agreed with me; that's why the movie's so good. In real life, there's no all-balanced people, everyone's unbalanced in some aspect. That American Beauty is a realistic movie. No one's balanced, no one's superhuman and that most of the people are not rich. And even when a movie isn't a true story, I like it better if the movie is feasible and it could be a true story.
