My favorite movie

Rating: 10/10 (17 May 2005)

This is in my opinion, the best movie ever made. Where to start? Acting? Kevin Spacey gives his best performance ever and the Oscar he received is more than deserved. Gabriel Bryne is terrific as Keaton. The rest of the cast is all very solid, especially Stephen Baldwin and Chazz Palmintieri. Del Toro and Pollak are also very good. Then there is the script and plot. Both build very well. They leave little hints without giving anything away. To completely understand this movie you have to watch it several times before you get everything. And of course the final scene is among the best ever. Director Brian Singer has really impressed me. He brought a certain style to this movie that is also evident in his X-Men movies (some of the better comic book adaptations). John Ottman gets kudos for his fantastic score. And everyone else who was involved in the making of this breath taking movie. This is a must see for everyone who doesn't mind a little violence and likes a movie with good twists.
