Edward Zwick brilliantly captures the feel of ultimate hope and triumph from the very beginning. We are left feeling joy for every person in the forest, for every unlikely hero who dug deep down within themselves for the strength to survive, to live another day. Daniel Craig was fantastic as their leader. His vulnerability wins you over, and his complete devotion to saving each and every one of his people was so heartfelt and exactly what heros are made of. My boyfriend and I found it a joy to watch such a well made movie. Every minute, every shot, reeled you in and never let you go until the last scene, until the last credit. Thank you, thank you Edward Zwick for sealing 2008 with the most excellent of movies.
