a seriously incredible film.

Rating: Null/10 (10 July 2011)

there was a couple of times that i stopped myself from watching this movie because of its negative reviews. it wasn't until i saw the movie on public broadcasting (with nothing better to do)that i realized how amazing it was. the performances were magnificent. Leonardo DiCaprio did an excellent job of portraying an exceedingly unlikable character while still maintaining a very realistic performance as did the whole cast! there are also many examples of excellent cinematography that must be seen to be described. not to mention, the directing was truly amazing. Danny Boyle adds a signature directing style to this film that not only propels the story forward but also adds a certain mood to the film in order to relate to the audience. a movie worth watching again and again with a riveting message about true paradise.
