Best movie ever

Rating: 10/10 (21 April 2006)

Well, that I've seen in a very long time anyway.
I've just come out of the theater and right home to read more about the making of the film and perhaps the reason behind the story. Why they wrote it. Where it originally came from. I hadn't seen or heard much about the film before I went to see it tonight. In fact, I thought it was about a girl who had a life altering experience and she goes on a rampage to get revenge.
Instead, when I walked out of the theater after the 2-hour long story, I felt as though I needed to watch it again. To be inspired by it's story. To take more of an interest in the world that we live in. Because how much do we really know?
The actors performances were great. Particularly Nathalie Portman. She's a joy to watch and she takes you right along for the emotional journey. Hugo Weaving's performance will draw you right in. His talent,
engaging you in his emotion all the while being hidden behind a mask, shines.
I highly recommend it to everyone. Well, everyone that takes an interest in the world around them. And maybe to those who don't. Maybe it will open your eyes. Get your wheels turning in your mind. Whet your curiosity to find out more about what is really out there. Give you a thirst for knowledge you didn't know you had.
It's a powerful story.
