Beautiful, exciting, and an adrenaline rush

Rating: 10/10 (9 January 2015)

I heard great things of this film, but I went in with little expectations. But I was very happily surprised with the film. Let me start of with saying this is visually a gorgeous piece of film. Every frame is so original and beautiful you would only watch it again so you could admire the background. I can also confirm that this film contains loads of talented (young) actors. I loved the performance of Bruce Willis as Captain Sharp, Jarid Gilman as Sam and Kara Hayward as Suzy. The story itself is very basic and may appear nothing special. But in combination with the cinematography, acting, passing and music this is just a pure adrenaline rush from start to finish. At this point in time I've watched the film like 3 or 4 times (what's a lot for me). The more I watch it, the more excited I am about it. This is a film you will like if you like the previous or later work of Wes Anderson.
