timeless classic

Rating: 9/10 (1 September 2018)

This movie really got to me when I first saw it back in 2004. It got me so emotionally involved that i felt upset by it, in a good way. This is the hallmark of a masterpiece of art and film making.
It has taken me 14 years to work up the courage to watch it again and it had the same affect on me.
This is an engaging, immersive, thought provoking and loving movie with incredible pacing, lovable characters (some not so lovable) and the ending will crush you.
I don´t want to spoil this for you by telling you what happens but trust me, I usually watch sci fi or horror movies and I enjoyed this...basically a love story with some fantasy / sci fi under tones.
I will probably watch this again in another 14 years and I fully expect it to tear my heart open again.
