There will be brilliance

Rating: 10/10 (27 January 2008)

This movie is in a league of it's own. The acting is fantastic, especially Paul Dano who's performance was shocking, and of course Daniel Day-Lewis delivers a spot on performance also. The soundtrack was extremely good and very powerful. As far as it being boring and drawn out, it is simply not true. I can understand why people may feel that way as it is a long movie, but cutting it down by even 5 minutes could have ruined what is a captivating story. You will be pulled into every scene and every moment and when the truly powerful scenes come you will be blown away. The direction and cinematography stand out and everything is delivered very well. As I said before the soundtrack is really good and helps capture the emotions. All in all this movie is fantastic and a must see for anybody who enjoys movies.
