A lot better than I thought

Rating: 8/10 (21 August 2009)

I've never been a fan of these type of movies and wasn't too excited to go see this with my friends. But I was very pleasantly surprised. It was very well acted and exciting with a complex and interesting story. The first scene really got me into it. Great suspense. I'll admit, it wasn't perfect. There were some rather useless bits (including a rather random conversation about king Kong) and it was a bit long and while I don't have a problem with length, some people may find they movie too long. The ending was amazing, and I won't spoil it, but it was definitely worth the length. Overall this was a good movie and I would recommend it to anyone willing to sit through over 2 and a half hours for a satisfying and interesting story.
