Powerful

Rating: 9/10 (20 August 2007)

Okay, I don't claim to be nearly smart enough to have a CLUE what this movie is about, but it kept me spellbound, heartbroken, and tight as a wire for the duration.
Hugh Jackman's performance was nothing short of incredible. Wow.
I just don't know what else to say, as there aren't words to convey the force this movie wields, but I still have space to fill. If you happen to be a big, strong macho guy, just a word of warning....if plan on paying ANY attention at all, or letting yourself get the least bit involved in what you're watching, you may want to have a hammer handy to whack yourself in the thumb once in a while. At least then, you'll have a 'real' reason for the tears in your eyes.
