NOT the testosterone-filled flick I expected

Rating: 9/10 (28 May 2000)

I won't go on about the story line like some. This movie is excellent. Acting was great-once again, Edward Norton, your the man- and dispite Brad Pitt's rep as being the man more infamously known for his good looks than his acting, he proved me wrong. Can I go on about how great the twists and turns the film had? I won't, but it was all good. I haven't seen this complicated of a plot since "Being John Malkovich". In fact, watching the whole film, especially towards the end, was kind of like being IN Malkovich's head. I think I should also call attention to the great job the writers did. I saw the previews and expected some stupid excuse of a violent action movie. I overcame those prejudices, saw it, and loved it. Yes, it's violent, and yes, it has about as much testosterone as a stadium full of hockey players, but it's also as dark and fast and scary as an indoor roller coaster.
