    A good test

    This is one of those films that proves if an individual has any taste in film or not. It is truly fantastic throughout every aspect. From being visually superb to being full of suspense, a great story and strong performances, this film is perfect.

    Anyone who is saying that this film is bad can be regarded as a fool and ignored immediately as these are the 'I'm not going to watch a film with subtitles! I want to be entertained, not read!' crowd. Their opinions must be deleted from all sources immediately.
