Wonderful!

I'll probebly have the shortest review on the imdb message board for this movie. what's to say? It's all been said, the film is a modern day classic-the ultimate in crime dramas/psychological thrillers etc etc-it puts other thrillers like "kiss the girls" to shame.
I don't think this was overtated, I know few people who, even if they can't sit through it don't at least have a high level of respect for this movie. Hopquins and Foster just made this superb, their interaction on screen was fascinating-just fascinating-the ultimate in the cat and mouse and this movie besides being the ultimate in suspence was also strangely touching.
I almost didn't see this, I was told it was so difficult to sit though but it really wasn't. I haven't seen part 2 or 3, I don't want to-nothing could possibly measure up and Jodie Foster probebly knew this after all we don't see her in the sequel.
To wind up, this isn't just a good film, it's superb.And the academy knew it to, I just wish they hadn't made a sequel.
