Great action suspense film! Congratulations Tony Scott

Rating: 10/10 (21 May 2006)

One of the best in it's genre. That simple. Tony Scott uses the camera, music, various techniques including subtitles to their ultimate. At any time the acting could go 'over the top' but it doesn't - congratulations to Mr. Scott for keeping the cast under control, but yet free enough to make it all real. The cast is great! From beginning to end the film will keep you at the edge of your seat. But remember - this is an action film, a suspense film and there are some bloody scenes - some are quite on the edge, but again, it never goes over the top. Camera techniques are great! As we move into new technology, there are ways the director with a strong collective group of artists can make things come alive in a new way. And as mentioned before, the use of subtitles - just wonderful, inventive. My only complaint - not speaking Spanish I wish we had translations of the music. That is my weakness - not speaking Spanish, so my apologies. That is the only part that frustrated me with the film. Congratulations to Tony Scott, his entire crew, a superb cast, an amazing script. Ridley Scott is more known in the world of film making, however I think brother Tony is a great great talent.
