133?

Rating: 8/10 (4 September 2006)

How this movie is ranked #133 of all time is beyond what I am capable of comprehending. I enjoyed this film and ranked it 8 out of 10, but in no way do I believe that this film is anywhere near the top 200- possibly top 250, but certainly not the top 200 yet alone #133. This film sent a profound message to audiences, but that's just the film's message. The actual quality of cinematic art is at a high level, but is sadly overshadowed by the film's political statements, which seem to be mentioned too frequently without enough substantial background. I beg those who rated this film a "10" to please reconsider. Nevertheless, I respect the opinion of the individual, and if one can justify to him or herself that this film deserves to be given a "10" along with the Godfather, Pulp Fiction, and the Shawshank Redemption, then so be it.
