This is a masterpiece

Rating: 10/10 (1 February 2000)

This is the most intense film I have ever seen. My favourite actor is, and always has been Marlon Brando. After him, it's Kevin Spacey and Edward Norton, and a large void between them and any other actor today. This is the first movie I ever saw with Norton and I was blown away. Unfortunately, I only saw it on video, but I did not take my eyes off the screen for a moment. The movie is brilliantly made, but even so, Norton adds something to it, which I now know he adds to all his films, which makes it stick in your memory. And I am so glad that he did not sell himself out, by doing worthless movies- he is now about thirty and done only a handful of films. I am very much anticipating the film he is set to do with Brando in the future, THE SCORE, and if Norton, Brando and Spacey ever appear in a film together I guarantee it will be a masterpiece. Anyone giving this film any less than 8 out of 10 has cannot see brilliance when it presents itself so intensely.
