A wonderful real-life true to the bone storyline and an amazing ensemble cast. I enjoyed this low budget feature more than the overrated overpriced Inception. Movies dont need to be expensive to be good!
All these people and criics raving about this movie? I don't get it...all it is is an excuse for special effect , car chases and crashes! Very weak on plotline....this movie is NOT The Matrix or Avatar!! At least those movies had an amazing captivating story and redeeming social conscience. Am sure all the teenage boys will enjoy this one! 2 thumbs down...
I was intrigued by how they would complete the movie after Heath Ledger, one of the main characters of the film, passed away in the middle of shooting. I can only say that they did a really wonderful job to honor Heath and his fans and still make the movie make sense through a little minor rewriting and ingenuity. This dark tale of good vs. evil is very much in the spirit of Terry Giliam's earlier films as he creates a world of mystery and illusion. It's definitely a film that would have looked incredible had it been shot in 3D. Christopher Plummer should receive an academy award nomination for his performance.
