Another Cinematic Portrait that is Lost in Hollywood's Attic!!

Rating: 8/10 (4 July 2008)

OK, First off.. IMDb.. 7.6 stars?? come on!! This movie is nothing short of genius. The storyline alone is enough to keep you glued to your seat let alone the REMARKABLE performances of Jackson and Ricci as well as the graceful support of Timberlake... YES... JT!! A lot of people approach films with a fixed mindset based on the poster, the trailer, or sometimes (sadly) the cast.. approach movies with an open mind.. let the director reach you and shape your imagination.. if he fails, then trash the movie... anyway back to the Snake.
This Movie tells a very bizarre yet touching story. As you screen it, you can't help but empathize as well as sympathize with almost all the characters. The score and music of the film are brilliant.. each song and tune chosen to trigger a string in your emotional instrument.
I cried, laughed, frowned and finally applauded as I watched this film.. how Samuel L Jackson is not a major Academy Award Winner baffles me.. WATCH THIS!! I GUARANTEE YOU WILL WANT TO OWN IT!! IF NOT FOR ANYTHING MAYBE TO JUST WATCH SAMUEL GET DOWN WITH THE BLUES!! Mr Brewer... congrats.. you have done it again :)
