Raw Visceral Emotion

Rating: 10/10 (20 January 2015)

I now have a new addition to my top 10 favorite movies of all time. I actually had to make an IMDb account so I could rate this film because to not rate this film would be considered, in my eyes, utter sacrilege.
It's lunacy to classify this movie as merely a Drama and a Musical but I understand, it fits well into those neat little boxes; it's got music and it's got drama. But the experience of watching this movie... the raw, visceral emotions this movie unwittingly rips out of you... the undeniable fact that it will land you right on the edge of your seat, filled to the brim with hope and fear and anxiety and hatred and wishing it will never end right up until the very second it does... this film not only demands to be categorized as a thriller, but a thriller that deserves a 10 star rating!
To not experience this movie is to proclaim oneself cinematically ignorant and forever unworthy of any seat in the theater.
Bravo!
