Spectacularly Cuaron!!

Rating: 8/10 (9 January 2007)

From "Great Expectations", to "The Prisoner Of Azkhaban", to "Y Tu Mama Tambien". He sure makes pure jewels in the silver screen. Now back with this very daunting storyline, he delivers one of the best cinematic effects so natural you'll feel the shock in every shots. *most specially the scenes where Kee was takin to the building being raided by the military wherein the rebels have taken refuge in".I mean, I can almost smell the dust and smoke. The scene was beautifully shot as it was alarmingly moving. The actors need a special mention too. Well, probably except, Julianne Moore, most of her scenes were forgettable til when she got shot in the neck. That was as high as her scenes in the movie can get. Clive Owen delivered well. A "confused", "no other choice" hero who has to save a damsel in distress "Kee" who holds a miracle which sadly though is a very "priceless commodity" during that time period which everybody else also wants. Special salute to Michael Caine. His scenes were brilliant. He pulled it off playin as a hippie of some sort. "Kee" was played well too. Easily can be one of the "Best Movie Of 2006"
