Excellent film of the genre., 11 July 2005

Ignore any adverse comments on here and watch this movie now! It is a deeply involving film which needs your utmost attention to enjoy it. In fact it's one of those film you watch again and again and every time notice something different.

If you are someone like me who is not overcritical of films and just wants to submerse themselves in the wonderful escapism of it all then you will not be disappointed. For those of you who are discerning critics you will, no doubt, leave yet another negative criticism on here. You really just don't get it do you and in fact you probably never will. For the rest of you keep on watching and enjoy every last minute :)
