Awesome...

Rating: 10/10 (23 May 2013)

As my ratings have shown I watch many many movies. Some of them good, and some of them bad. But this one is a definite 10.
Recently a colleague of mine said that the future of Hollywood is not more action movies for they will become the Miami Vice of the current time. The future of Hollywood will be the writing. And in this case the movie and its writing is quite good. There is an actual plot, with a beginning and an end.
This movie is long! It is nearly 3 hours and I advise that you make time for the entire movie. No interruptions, no dinners, no side conversations. This movie is very intense and is riddled with details. What makes this movie special is its ability to tell a story and keep you interested. There are good parts, and there are bad parts, happy parts, and sad parts. It is a roller-coaster and very enjoyable.
Overall I thought this movie was refreshing and offers a contrast to the slew of actions movies. Action movies can be fun and enjoyable, but they are not mentally stimulating like this one.
