THE ARTIST by the viewer

Rating: 8/10 (20 February 2012)

for me its not the best film of the year but definitely refreshing. i didn't find anything extraordinary in the film as there is nothing that hasn't been done before but yes what i did enjoy the most is the last 15mins made up for the previous 1.5hrs, awesome ending, for me it ended with climax. as for the music 10/10. acting 9/10. costumes 9/10. now why i particularly enjoyed the movie was while i was seeing it i was remembering all the great silent, black and white films i have seen before...oh bringing back those memories is why i called it refreshing.the reason behind my mixed review is, yes it is a good film but is it what we call a classic, where for another 10years i will repeatedly keep watching it? i didn't think so.
