Beautifully evocative. Wonderfully presented.

Rating: 10/10 (11 July 2013)

Probably one of the best movies I've seen.
The story is great ... I was reading the book when I came across the movie ... but I think this is one of those rare cases where the movie turns out better than the book and that is because of the cast.
Logan Lerman is fantastic. You really feel all the uncertainty, the inner turmoil, the self-imposed guilt and the pain that weigh down Charlie. His performance is so good that it's easy to overlook those who play "Nothing" and Sam, and all the others, but everyone was exceptionally good, although some of the better known actors like Paul Rudd, Dylan McDermott were definitely outshone by the three central actors.
At no time did you feel any acting was going on or that the dialogue came from a script. They really were Charlie, Patrick and Sam. Fantastic.
