Husband really enjoyed this. Great movie night.
I've lost count of the number of times I have seen this movie, but it is more than 20.
Don't hesitate. You'll like it.
Topping All Expectations!!!! Each character had their own little arc for them to develop in, this movie pulled it off with grace!
I don't often see a modern film that I thoroughly enjoy, but this is one of the exceptions. From the start, you are immersed in the movie.
Very early in this film, I formed an interpretation which I believe to be completely correct, and borne out by the plot and details. I thoroughly enjoyed the journey, and was surprised by many aspects of the film along the way.
I was not disappointed! I enjoyed this movie and will recommend it.
So good. The film was easy to follow.
