I would say

posted on 15 October 2007

This movie is unlike anything I have ever seen. One point I would like to
make is, anyone who did not understand the story, please don't give it a bad
rating because that is unfair. How can you rate a movie you admit you can't
understand?
As for the movie, it is genius. The director (Sam Mendes) and
cinematographer (Conrad Hall) find beauty in the most unlikely places -
watch the 'dancing bag' scene, or the scene where Lester is dying - that is
unlikely beauty. The story does make sense if you take the time to
understand it. It is about how people make themselves unhappy by striving to
be what they think society wants them to be, and not by living their lives
the way they want to live. As always, Kevin Spacey (Lester) and Annette
Bening (Caroline) give amazing performances. Even the characters that the
audience hates, such as the 'real estate king' (Peter Gallagher) or the
abuse father (Chris Cooper) are acted perfectly. I would recommend this
movie to anyone who is in the mood for a beautiful, complex, interesting
movie.
