Movie Review by B Movie Ben

January 16th, 2008

You threw it away, you dumb f*ck!

Where do you start with a film like this? With the director? Spike Lee put together a magnificent film that really kept your interest throughout. There really wasn't a dull moment. The theme of losing was woven throughout the film. Not just with Edward Norton's character, but with all of them. They all were in the same situation in their lives and he just got caught.

Norton (American History X, Primal Fear) was nothing short of magnificent as he ran the whole gamut of emotions in this film. He knew he screwed up, and blaming it on others or dreaming of an escape wouldn't help. he just had to face the music, and he did it like a man.

Rosario Dawson (Rent, Clerks II) gave a great performance as well. She really is becoming a favorite with me. The more I see, the more I want.

The supporting cast was so great - Barry Pepper (The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada), Philip Seymour Hoffman (Capote), Anna Paquin (The Piano), and Brian Cox (The Bourne Supremacy).

The story was great, the music was great, the acting was superb, and I really enjoyed this one.
