I want my money back...

Rating: 10/10 (8 January 2004)

... so that I can pay for another ticket and go and see it again, and again, and again... I was stunned. Literally. The film is incredible. Only someone with a psychological aversion to fantasy won't be able to see at least one thing great on the big screen when this film is runnig. Those who dismiss it as 'popcorn fair' may have a point - there certainly is a lot of spectacle up there - but you fdpn't have to read between the lines, or look deeper, because it's not the special effects or sweeping visuals that carry you along (although, that helps!) but the characters, the drama, the intensity... Sod it - I'm off to see it again. Later.
