Smart, Edgy, at times artful

Rating: 10/10 (4 October 2005)

This is a film for moviegoers. I guess that untrained audiences will like it also but I cannot speak for them. Still it is a smart movie from start to end. The direction and photography are quite fresh, with clever angles and classy shots. Even if it proves a bit strange to eyes that are used to run of the mill direction, it remains as entertaining and as uplifting as an entertaining film can be. Don't be put off by the fact that the actors seem to have fun on stage (as they probably do) because this spirit flows to the end viewer and, at the end of the day that is the point in a film of this genre. Classic, classy, fresh, smart. I enjoyed it. I think you will too
