Wow.

I never thought I'd see the day when I could actually rank a comic-book film above the rest and into the realm of Great Film-making. This is the first.
The characters are complex, the plot and many subplots and tight and inter-woven, the editing is brilliant, the action is very gritty and not one special effect looks truly fake.
I never thought I'd see the day when a comic-book film could actually punch you with emotions and get across its ideas. This film is one that states fear will drive you if you use it as it has used you.
I can't get over how well-made this film is. It is just a great film. The best, by far, of 2005, alongside Crash.
P.S. The ending...with a certain "Face card"...is possibly the best ending to any film I've ever seen. Hands down.
