A Joy To watch!

Rating: 9/10 (7 February 2002)

Having looked the the votes given by IMDB revewers i am really suprised The Beach only averages 5.7 out of 10. I loved this film! I had heard that some people were not keen on this film but i cant see why. Leonardo de Caprio, who is not my favourite actor by a long way, is superb as a tourist who hears while travelling in Thailand of a paradise island where there are beautifull beaches and enough weed to last a life time. He sets out to find the Island but not before he makes hi bigest mistake which is to draw a map and give it to another set of tourists. The story is superb as is the acting and there are moments which leave you with your heart in your mouth. Far, Far better than i was expecting and a joy to watch! 9 out of 10.
