Deliciously Entertaining..

Rating: 10/10 (9 February 2005)

When this movie released in August, I was simply overjoyed and immediately wanted to go see it. Because of my busy schedule that summer, I didn't have the time to go see The Village. When I did have that spare moment, I didn't bother to go see it because the majority of my friends said it was crap and a waste of money.
Just a few weeks ago this movie came out to rent on DVD. Looking somewhat forward to renting it, my friend spoiled the enormous twist at the end just to prove it was a stupid movie. About a week later, I went to the movie store looking forward to renting a comedy, but ended up getting the Village. I wasn't expecting it to be so good.
I think that most people didn't enjoy this movie because the twist was disappointed, but since it was spoiled for me, I found absolutely wonderful! Besides the Notebook, the Village is now my all-time favourite movie. It captured my attention from the first title on the screen, to the very last.
I'm really upset that none of the actors got an Oscar nod; especially the actor who plays Ivy Walker. Another element of this movie that was amazing was the music.
I think this movie is underrated and deserves a 9/10. It is worth seeing. I don't think movies get much better than this.
