Emotionally Twists the Mind

Rating: 9/10 (22 February 2008)

First let me start off by saying that this movie is extremely powerful and sends us a message not typical in most movies. This movie goes beyond most viewers expectations as it did for me. I was expecting an emotional piece but not as in depth as this one. I mean yes it does seem very unlikely that all these people somehow meet, but you know what its still possible. I also like the fact that this was not done right after 9/11. I think people would be too distracted and the message that Haggis was trying to get across would not reach most audiences. The cast in this movie could not have been better. Most of the actors and actresses in it we have heard of but have not done anything real serious yet. Therefore we know their acting abilities and what they are capable of but we just haven't seen it yet. This movie brings out the best in each and every one of these actors. Basically in a nutshell, this movie is an extremely powerful piece and should be taken seriously.
