Awesome

Rating: 10/10 (9 January 2003)

It is a rare thing indeed to come across a movie that so beautifully (pardon the pun) draws together cinematography, story and soundtrack to produce something profoundly moving. And this is it.
I still struggle to believe that I could love a movie set in such humdrum circumstances (basically a middle class suburb in America) so much. It's totally about the characters and their development and as such has several of the most convincing characters I've seen in any movie ever. Despite being a self confessed stereotypical male sci-fi lover, this is my favourite movie of all time. And there are no space ships.
See it, you'll be glad you did. Then see it again.
