Product: Gods and Monsters (1998)
Rating: 5.0
Most unterrated movie
Gods and Monsters has everything a really satisfying moving should have: Goo actors, interesting places and ideals. Ian McKellen is superb as the eldering gay director who gets a real friend in his last day ("I'm not interested in your body, I can assure you."). I watched Benigni and it's really a failure that McKellen's performance wasn't honored by the Academy. And so is Lynn Redgrave's ("Mr. Jimmy! [...] he's a bugger!"). Look at the underrated Bredan Fraser who proves he can act. But eventually the film has a brillant script, transferred to film and adapted by Bill Condon. Technically, you will get one of the best DVDs made yet (look at the color, at the contrast). Only thing missing is Dolby Digital 5.1. Go and buy it! Now!
