I cried.

Rating: 10/10 (13 July 2012)

Now it is very rare that I give a film 10/10 because I believe that no film can be 'perfect' - but for the first time I believe I have found a genuine 10.
Featuring two of my favourite actors, Matt Damon and Robin Williams, I was already optimistic about the film and the acting did not disappoint. Everything the actors did and said was so suitable to their characters and it was clear that they had an overwhelming understanding of the characters they were playing.
The plot was thoughtful but in no way slow. It contained that balance that all great films need of comedy, romance, drama, friendship and raw emotion. This balance was so well distributed that it meant one could cry (as I did) at an emotional scene but could then be comforted by a later scene with some comedy.
The film is one of absolute brilliance, which teaches an important lesson about life. It will go down as a classic in my books. I've seen a lot of films - and I mean a lot - but this will forever hold a place in my 5 all time favourite films.
A must see for anyone and everyone.
