Much more than just a drama, a film that could change your life!

Rating: 10/10 (2 January 2012)

'American Beauty' is not just a film to view or a story to adore, it is something more like a vast experience, a journey to witness and when do you realize these things? it is when you meet the protagonist, this very ordinary and common man called Lester Burnham, played beautifully by Kevin Spacey, but it is not Spacey, whom we witness on screen, it is Lester the man. Let's just forget everything else and simply stare at Lester's life as he narrates to us. The fact is it is not just Spacey who breathes life into the film, almost every character shines in their respective roles, giving a perfect team work. What the film demands for is, how you, the viewer studies the various characters. What supports Spacey's brilliant performance are an excellent support from Annette Benning, Thora Birch, Wes Bentley and Mena Suvari. Apart from them the rest other cast give a worthy support. You can't help but gaze at the entire cast performance and get involved with them each mentally because you are forced to see situations from their individual perspectives. Nothing more to say, watch out this film yourself and you will realize that a life can be much more than you ever thought. Trust me, you will think it over and over again, its not just a film but a mild experience. Without a doubt, its a 9.9 out of 10.
