Great Movie

Rating: 10/10 (5 February 2010)

I thought Sam Rockwell did one heck of a job in this movie. One of the best pictures of all time and the very best for 2009. Sam should have been nominated for an Academy Award and the movie for all the other attending awards, as well. Pity. Too bad it was a thinking person's movie. The scenes were haunting and the story kept me hanging on edge the whole time. I was trying to guess the ending but, alas, I was completely surprised at the end. If you are looking for a lot of bullets, chase scenes, wrecks and idiotic script then this is not the movie for you. If you want to be placed in deep thought as you watch this movie then see it. If you want to be taken on a cerebral journey, then it's for you. You will become completely engrossed in the movie. Its story and special effects will soon grapple and hold you tight throughout. It will cause you to realize that somethings the future holds for us are not too far fetched after all. You will like the challenge of answering questions that come to mind as you watch. Those questions keep you second guessing until you come to realize that you were a long way down the path of misunderstanding all along. There is no real misdirection as you may start to suspect in the beginning. It is a straightforward movie that will have you going over it in your mind for a long time to come. Settle in for a movie that reminds you of what movies should be.
