It's Good! (My First Review!)

Rating: 10/10 (3 April 2013)

To start, with. This is my first review, and I am no genius as far as reviews go. However, I decided my first should be for my (probable) favourite. (I know I haven't given this 10/10, but that is only because there is one film I like more than this).
Now I have watched this film around 50 times, but it can still keep me enthralled. There are not many films which can manage to do it, but this one succeeds. I think, apart from the great performances from the leads, albeit a somewhat 'over the top performance' from Nicholson, the acting is first rate. So let's move on from there.
The one thing which really makes this film stand out in its genre is the cinematography. It is beautifully filmed. The soundtrack fits perfectly. and on a visual level it is near on impeccable. It has to be said that I am a horror film fan, so, my view could be classed as maybe biased. But look at it the other way. I have seen a heck of a lot of horror films and this one takes some beating! All in all, a great film. Try and grasp the storyline, rather than expecting a gorefest. You won't be disappointed!
