Instant Classic!

Rating: Null/10 (20 July 2009)

How wonderfully surprised I was to see this film.. I felt as if I had stumbled into an art film house in the seventies. It's an instant classic. These film makers went back to a very simple and trusted idea that modern films have wholly forgotten – "it's the script stupid!" Tell me a story. A good story is entertainment all by itself. Forget all the hoopla about special effects, and explosions, and blood – nudity. Tell people a good story, and that's how you make an instant classic. As far as sci-fi/sci-fantasy goes, it's up there with "Metropolis," "THX 1138," "2001 A Space Odyssey, "Blade Runner," and "Millennium." I thought the art direction was fantastic; it looks like the Moon. Great job guys! There are so few modern films worth watching in a theatre – go see this one.
