try to see this film twice

Rating: 10/10 (2 November 2002)

This is one of those love it or hate it scenarios. I don't think I've read a single review so far saying it was only okay (although some people seem a bit confused and didn't know what to think). Personally, I loved this film.
My friend had given away the ending but it didn't spoil it one bit. In fact, it helped me to understand about 99% of the film because it helped me to notice all the little things that contributed to the end. I saw the film last night with two friends, one being the person who told me the ending, and he said he understood it more the second time when he knew what was going to happen.
The film is wonderfully structured, brilliantly written and directed and I can't think of a single bad performance. It is also one of those one in a million films which has pretty much everything in it; Sci-Fi, comedy and fantasy mainly but there are also moments of love, hate, violence and tragedy. You can't put this film into one single genre.
So even if you absolutely despised this film, one day, when you've nothing better to do, make the time to see it again. Although I haven't seen it twice myself (I had the advantage of already knowing the ending), I'm pretty sure you will enjoy the film more the second time. I hope I will because I am definitely getting this on DVD.
