In Reply to: C'mon, what did you think of the movie, overall? I thought it was a most posted by tinear on June 7, 2009 at 20:21:26:
Very well done. The pacing and rhythm were very even throughout the film, the acting was, for the most part, superb, and it's nice to see a well scripted movie whose subtext can be seen to deal with today's social issues, but never michael-moore-in-your-face preachy. Subtlety is the key here.
It may not be for everyone, since what conflict there was in the movie was never unrealistically portrayed (i.e., Harrison Ford isn't there to beat up the Mean Towny a la 'Witness'). Also, some relationships and situations just drop off a cliff, never to be seen again, but it's consistency in that regard made it seem a conscious choice by the film maker, and therefore realistic on the face.
All in all, if not a must-see, a well-worth-seeing.
