Uncoventional

Rating: 8/10 (25 February 2008)

I like a movie to be unpredictable and as unique as possible. (which is very hard for any writer or director to do these days) For me, this movie really does set a new standard, it was about as unconventional as your gonna get. Superb sound design, considering a movie's soundtrack usually produces a high percentage of the drama. I did think at times the acting could have been better and in some parts it became a little unbelievable, also I thought the character introductions were far to long-winded!? (around 20 minutes). It was almost like a Tarantino scene only filmed on a digi cam!
I really like how the film ended, very clean, quick, un-Hollywood like and unexpected, similar to I Am Legand. Overall I thought this movie was very good, well worth seeing.
PS, I love the idea of a sequel set from an alternate perspective. Go JJ!
