Almost Passed it By, but So Glad We Didn't

Rating: 9/10 (18 March 2011)

Yes, if not for the wife being a huge fan of Matt Damon, I don't think we would have bothered to go and see this movie. We saw a few reviews comparing it to Inception, which we both thought was awful, but finally decided it just couldn't be that bad, so off we went. Boy, are we glad we did. Just goes to show that comparing one movie to another can sometimes, and more often than not is, the wrong thing to do. We loved this movie. It's got romance and the spark between Damon and Blunt was amazing. It's got intrigue, suspense, lots of action, a few laughs, and is very entertaining, the way all movies should be, but so few are. This is definitely the best movie to come out so far this year, and if you don't see it, then you're just cheating yourself out of some solid entertainment.
