An Epic masterpiece, and a feast for the eyes, and mind

Rating: 10/10 (15 August 2008)

Every once and while there is a film that sweeps the movie critics, and audiences off their feet, one of the greatest examples would be this film. It hits every emotion the human body can produce, and then some. It bleeds through your mind and heart, the moment the film starts. It has the perfect mixture of love, romance, tragedy, humor, excitement, and adventure, without exploiting or going over the top. This film showcases love can withstand anything, and will break through barriers big or small, and has a very unique message that says their is beauty and happiness through great tragedy, and that heartbreak and loss can only make you stronger. The film is epic, and has beautiful cinematography, with lush costumes, Oscar worthy performances, breathtaking special effects, a very universal story that any country could understand, and has a score that not only sound gorgeous, but contributes to the story. Through out my life their are very few films that stick out, and remind me of the very first time I saw that movie, on a scale from one to ten, this would be a twenty. And is one of the three films to receive eleven Oscars, major ones including Best Picture, Director, Editing, Score, Special Effects, and Cinematography, Art Direction, Costume Design, Sound Effects, Sound, Song, and received three nominations, including Best Actress in a Leading Role, Best Actress in a Supporting Role, and Best Makeup.
