Really Totally Excellent

Rating: 10/10 (19 July 2009)

It's very very rare I would give a film 10/10, but when you view this with an open mind, the film is basically fully rounded just as the likes of Casablanca. It's full and complete on every level. This of course does not mean perfect. But it's near enough.
To summarise it carries all the great qualities - excellent down to earth acting, superb cinematography and directing and editing, great story and script, deep human emotions which capture the heart, appropriate and excellent well timed music and of course action and comical moments.
Most importantly throughout and afterwards it leaves one with the increased altruistic wish to help others - great for the bodhisattvas out there! That really is the biggest and deepest beauty of any form of art, film or otherwise. And this hit's the mark deep inside the soul along those lines in so many ways, because indeed it is so real and spiritually stimulating on so many levels. That is finally why it's worthy of a 10.
This film is truly divinely blessed!
Full marks Danny Boyle and all involved!
