Good - Yes!

Rating: 7/10 (21 August 2004)

But # 18 of all time . . . ? According to the IMDB critic/reader database at the time of this writing, 18 was the number.
This is a great film with excellent acting, casting, direction, and script. But the greatest of great films might have to go beyond just those parameters.
Does the charade of Keyser Soze warrant categorization as one of the 20 best films of all time? Probably most of the artists involved would disagree. This is a solid, solid piece of work; fantastic conceptualization and accurate execution.
Few people can spend time with this movie and not be entertained. But to really be moved, wowed, and to have an major perceptual transition will take a nobler script.
This is an excellent movie, but somehow overrated. Probably we should ask why?
