very borderline

Rating: 5/10 (25 January 2006)

This was a very interesting movie, it wasn't good enough for me to watch the credits and it wasn't bad enough to walk out of. Eric Bana plays the role brilliantly as did Geoffrey Rush (thats good Aussie talent)however I thought there was a lot of unnecessary violence in it. I do realize to make such a tragedy realistic you need violence but not to this extent, all through out the movie there was bits and pieces going everywhere.
and also a lot of nudity, I mean it doesn't need to be in there, this could have been a great M rated movie...instead of a disturbing MA rating. That being said I do congratulate Spielberg on maintaining a good storyline and picking good actors. A good movie, could have been better, but there is still a chance for an Oscar
