Excellent!

Rating: 10/10 (27 December 2008)

Usually, when I read a highly complimentary review of the movie I think it is a paid lackey for the studio generating ticket sales. However, I do not work for the studio's. This movie is the best movie I have scene in a long time.
One thing that struck me was Brad Pitt's performance. He has matured. His acting was more skillful and insightful that any thing he has done recently. One could tell he was enjoying himself.
Cate Blanchett was excellent to. To me Ms Blanchett has the same skill set as Katherine Hepburn. She can play several characters very well at the same time.
In conclusion, the technical aspects of the film were astonishing. Also, the movie was very emotional. As demonstrated by the women crying around me.
