My good lord - what a well directed film

Rating: 9/10 (26 December 2006)

Just got out of the theater, and I just have to say, quite briefly, that this is an exquisitely directed film.
I don't know why the heck the studio isn't putting any advertising push behind this movie, but - really - it is an extraordinary, powerful, human, and very moving piece. Full of action and pathos. It should be getting more attention, and hopefully the word of mouth will carry this movie enough to attract a strong audience.
Won't spoil anything here. But for any intelligent movie goer who enjoys beautifully shot action sequences, intelligent cinema, and the best portrayal of a squalid future dystopia since "Brazil," this movie is definitely for you.
