Amazing but overlooked

Rating: 10/10 (19 February 2009)

The weekend this came out was the same as Rush Hour 3 (which I'm a huge fan of the series) so when my buddy suggested we go see it I was skeptical. Yet this was definitely in the top two movies of summer 07 and it goes in my top 25 movies. This movie has everything a good movie should. Action, romance, suspense and best of all, humor. The only thing that disappointed me about this movie was that it was overlooked by the broad spectrum of movie goers. In a summer with such hits as The Bourne Ultimatum, Spider-Man 3 and as i previously stated, Rush Hour 3, it sorta fell to the bottom of peoples to see lists. I believe that people that aren't fans of fantasy movies will greatly enjoy this flick. This is not your typical fantasy movie such as Lord Of The Rings and Harry Potter. Don't be fooled into being convinced it is such. With an amazing cast and a great directorial flow it is a definite must see. I will have to read the book now that have immensely enjoyed the movie.
