Good but not great

Rating: 10/10 (9 February 2005)

My friends seem to have an obsession over this film and after getting over my initial hatred of it due to this obsession I've actually come to realise this film is actually really quite good. The visuals at times are breath taking and the relationship between scarlet and bill is not only real but quite brilliant in the way it is written and the way in which they react around each other. In terms of the ending i realise it may not be to everyones taste but in my opinion it is the best way this film could have ended. The conclusion to my rambling is that while it may not be to everyones taste (which I can fully understand)this film is a spectacle well worth viewing though still it is not deserved of the cult status some have elevated it too.
