In a word...BRILLIANT!

Rating: 9/10 (29 December 2006)

This is without a doubt the best movie I've seen for 2006. I only just this minute finished watching it, and it was so powerful I HAD to say something about it. To be honest, this was a pretty crappy summer for the film industry...'Step Up', 'Lady In The Water', for example. But here comes Will, in what in my humble opinion is without a doubt his greatest performance EVER in a screenplay! People need to get over themselves. To all the jerk wads going on about how he should stick to action/comedy flicks etc, grow half a brain, acquire some depth and intellect, and THEN maybe you can appreciate this piece of work. I was so happy to see him in a role so far removed from the characters he usually goes for...the sex-symbol/heart-throb kinda stuff. He truly proved himself in this movie, and I think he deserves an Oscar nomination at the very least.
