PERFECT!

Rating: 10/10 (18 December 2003)

I saw this at an special screening in LA, and being an enormous fan of the book, I was not disappointed. It was absolutely perfect. It's got it all: a big epic with jaw-dropping battle scenes, a love story, a friendship, suspense, and -----SPOILER! DO NOT READ IF YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW HOW IT ENDS-----a moving, but very sad ending. Jude, Nicole and Renee are fantastic. Along with MYSTIC RIVER, my favorite film of 2003!
