The best of its kind.
This is a movie for people who are interested in more than special effects and inane dialogue. Contrary to most, if not all, of what is spewed out of Hollywood these days to an increasingly undiscerning audience, this one requires some thought and attention. The dialogue, at times, demonstrates the heights to which prose can rise, and the situations are as real as any that the common person might face. Alienation from loved ones, striking out at those we love because they hurt us, failing to gain what we seek because we accept less than what we truely desire; in short, the common human experience. Yet it ends on a positive note, one that affirms that the deeds of the past may yet be swallowed by the possibilities to come. The acting is well done, and the characters well defined. It is a movie that stands apart, and one that will be remembered by all who demand quality in their entertainment.
