Amazing, better then expected!

Rating: 9/10 (18 March 2006)

This movie truly exceeded the previews. That seems to be a very rare thing these days. From the previews I was expecting a very artistically done action movie, lots of fun, but hardly moving. I was greatly surprised by an amazing story full of drama, romance and even politics, which I rarely enjoy.
I intend to purchase it the minute it comes out on video, and as my minimal video collection can attest, that is the highest rating I can give any movie.
An amazing performance by Natalie Portman, sure to greatly boost her career, and wonderful performances by all.
I can only pray this is no indication of what the future truly holds for us.
