Praise for a Movie
Friday, May 1, 2009

I went into this film expecting it to be like every other movie and I was pleasantly surprised! My expectations were firmly set to "generic" so I was much pleased to find that it wasn't as generic as I thought it would be. Whereas most movies in this genre would have been content to simply follow formula, this movie perfected that formula up to the point where it dodged its genre's conventions just enough to be fresh and exciting! What I really liked most about this movie is that, unlike other movies, it makes you think.

I like movies that make me think. They are so rare in Hollywood these days. As I walked out of the theater, I was thinking. This movie made me do that.
