User Review:
Amazing movie, really artistic, just don't watch the trailers they spoil the movie
, rated: 10/10
Watched it in a early screening in Toronto, and I was shocked! I didn't
expect such an amazing movie. Will remember it for the rest of my life.
Ignore the comments by Jewish ladies who were offended by the movie's
contents. Those are just a small part of this masterpiece.
The roles are all played well. Paul Giamatti's role is nothing short of
Oscar-winning in my opinion. The story is fun, but serious. The scenes
are high-quality and well designed. I really didn't see anything
missing.
Just one point, DO NOT watch the trailers. They completely spoil the
movie. I think the main reason I loved the movie was that I did not
know anything about it. But for those who have read the book, it should
still be fun. It's a well-made movie, on top of a wonderful story.
