Breath taking

Rating: 9/10 (5 August 2002)

This film left me staring into space long after I had finished it. It was so realistic and heartbreaking it gave me chills. Never was there more heart in a film such as this, I felt the characters really existed, not actors playing them. Charlie Sheen and Tom Berenger are excellent and Willem Dafoe is simply perfect. I think he was robbed when he didn't win the Academy Award for his nomination of best supporting actor for this film. An absolute must see, even if you're not a fan of the genre.
