Well Made Thriller

Rating: 10/10 (23 April 2014)

I think overall Insomnia was a well made film. It had a great cast, Al Pacino was great and Robin Williams was outstanding as the villain. The cinematography by Wally Pfister was gorgeous and the directing was sublime. Throughout the movie there was always a dark tone even though the actual town that it was set was always in daytime. David Julyan's score gives an operatic sense to the film which in addition to great acting and low key lighting creates a dark feel to the film. I think in my opinion Robin Williams should have at least been nominated for the best supporting actor Oscar. Overall Christopher Nolan has made a dark, gripping movie with a great cast and beautiful Cinematography.
9/10
