If you like movies, not Johnny Action Flick Or Jane Romance I mean really like movies, Go see Closer, go see it twice. This seductive twist of four people is more than it has been presented as. Mainly because most people can't quite say what this movie is. And that's the way it should be, it's the best movie that can't be described. Closer is also largely about the acting.
A lot has been said about the transformation of Natalie Portman in this movie and that is an understatement. Natalie was as far as I'm concerned the most powerful actor in this movie and that is saying a lot. Jude Law, Julia Roberts and Clive Owen were amazing and all could have been the best actors in most movies. If you're going to see this movie for the hype on Natalie, much was cut out by the director which does not hurt the movie so go see it anyway and I hope you'll agree.
