Great Movie

Rating: 9/10 (12 June 2005)

I must say, I was anticipating this movie very much. This movie was quite simply brilliant. It captivated me from the very start, emotionally as well as spiritually as it portrayed the perseverance of the human heart. This movie will leave you breathless and trust me, u want to see it in the theater. Don't wait until the DVD comes out. If u do, u will be missing out. Russel Crowe puts on a performance that is second to none in this fine piece of art that will undoubtedly acclaim some sort of award in the future. It may seem that Crowe is on a real hot streak, as he further cements his Hollywood "a-list" status with yet another gripping yet harrowing tale of a man's passion.
I don't want to give anything away about this movie, however I can say that this movie is not predictable at all, well maybe a little if you don't watch a lot of movies. But if you are a seasoned buff the things that you have become accustomed to seeing in these sorts of films is totally twisted away.
The only gripe I have about this film is that at the end they should've showed a photo of the real life man him self with a date of birth to death. Other than that none at all.
