Great Movie

Rating: 10/10 (25 July 2012)

Really enjoyed this movie, amazed that Tom Hardy can act with just a pair of eyes. Anne Hathaway was a revelation particularly as I thought one day was a complete car crash of a movie. Had a couple of twists that I really enjoyed, it's unusual to have a movie with so many action shots/ set pieces that also has so much dialogue. Some big themes are explored with though not hugely in depth, they added a different dimension to the narrative. There were a number of questions that I had but that demonstrates how I'd engaged with the film. Music was top notch and the film looked amazing. Great to see an eclectic mix of actors from Owen in torchwood to Tom Conti, no one character dominated the proceedings, in many ways the this was an ensemble piece rather than a principal character around which the film was built- I think it was better for it.
