This movie is dope.

Rating: 9/10 (20 August 2015)

This movie is one of best written films I've ever seen, never before have I witnessed dialogue this good, that's not a Tarantino film. And the whole concept of the movie is genius. The only annoyance is that I already knew the ending through cultural osmosis, due to the film's cult status I found it somewhat unavoidable, like the six sense or fight club. But that didn't make it any worse, because while the ending is crazy and iconic, the film is not dependant on this alone. Kevin Spacey's portrayal of Verbal is insane, the subtle character traits he possessed, like nervous ticks or strange head movements really encapsulated his character perfectly without drawing any attention away from his dialogue. I thoroughly enjoyed this movie and am keen to watch it again to pick up on anything I missed the first time. I highly recommend this film.
