Unbelievable

Rating: Null/10 (22 August 2002)

This film was absolutely unbelievable. I loved every second of it. Mel Gibson performed beautifully, as always, as a father and former reverend that lost faith after his wife died. Joaquin Phoenix was excellent as Gibson's little brother, Merrill, who was once a minor-league baseball player. Rory Culkin and Abigail Breslin are both equally impressive as Gibson's children. Culkin as his asthmatic son, who believes that the crop circles are real from the very beginning. Breslin is as adorable as she is talented and always seems to stick by her brother. An all-around thriller that keeps you on the edge of your seat and wondering "hey hey are they going to get out of this alive?!" It scared the sh*t out of me and, even though I scare surprisingly easily, I heard the screams from the rest of the audience in the theater. It is a movie that I would go see again...and again...and again...
