Gritty, Dark, Violent, and Amazing!

Rating: 9/10 (18 April 2005)

I'll admit that going into this film I had no idea what I was about to see. I had never read or even see a copy of the books but I had heard excellent word of mouth about the film and opted to see it. I was surprised. This film blew me away. The action and the story were amazing. The characters were portrayed to perfection and you really begin to like them, whether or not you agree with what they are doing. The violence is great but it sets the mood for the story. The film has to be one of the better movie to come out of Hollywood in the past 10 years. It was great and I recommend it to anyone who loves a good action movie with a good storyline.
