Better than I thought it would be

Rating: Null/10 (19 June 2002)

I don't think Al Pacino is all that wonderful, and I personally have never been able to STAND Robin Williams. I went because I wanted to see what, Hilary Swank would do (she was wonderful (AND ADORABLE) and also I have loved Christopher Nolan since day one.
But the guys really pulled it out in this one. Al was well - AL. Robin Williams surprised me because his character was really quite intriguing.
But THE BEST thing of all was the story. Christopher Nolan is a great film- maker. The tone of the story definitely had an overcast quality, but more importantly the audience isn't insulted by the idea that there is only one CLEARLY bad guy, and one CLEAR good guy. We all know that is not the way it works out in life, so why do we have to be subjected to that in the theaters? Chris did not stop there where so many others have. Kudos to you!
8/10
