Captivating for all three hours!

Rating: 10/10 (6 March 2007)

Although I totally forgot Se7en and didn't see Panic Room, I can say that Mr. Fincher is now one of my favourites. Fight Club this is not, but it's a delicate drama meticulously and attentively directed. This is a movie's movie, and does not seem long at all, only not long enough! I thought casting Mark Ruffalo was weird, but he is astounding in his role. Jake Gyllenhaal, besides being beautiful and intelligent and sexy, delivers an absolutely brilliant performance. Can't wait to see the 6-hour director's cut and commentary and (more Jake Gyllenhaal) and anything else relating to this gripping masterpiece. Thanks for reading! Paulina
