Perfect Writing, Directing, Acting

Rating: 9/10 (21 August 2010)

Andrew Kevin Walker wrote what could be considered one of the greatest scripts in cinema history and it was undoubtedly adapted with perfect precision by the great auteur David Fincher. The cinematography is also dynamic and gritty, a characteristic found in many Fincher films such as Fight Club.
Easily, the best performance goes to Kevin Spacey. He was the best actor within the group. But I would point to Andrew Kevin Walker again, as he created and actor proof character, but Spacey delivered. If the character himself had had more screen time, I think he would have been just as, if not more interesting to watch than Anthony Hopkins Hannibal.
I've read that Pitt turned down a role in Apollo 13 to do this and a brilliant choice it was. He has since worked with Fincher on Fight Club and The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button, so they must work well together, either way it comes across well on screen.
