NICE BALANCE

Rating: Null/10 (31 December 2003)

Now this is a nice balance of beautiful cinematic imagery and story, very unlike the overrated LOTR trilogy. This had great music, incredible performances, and an insight into the complexities of various southern attitudes towards the civil war. The movie did seem to lose its' rhythm every now and then but overall, it restored my faith in movie making, especially having seen LOTR the night before.
