This character driven, extremely well-written film had me glued to the screen. It definitely got me and got me good and I love that it did. This is one time I agree with the Academy Awards: Christopher McQuarrie definitely deserved to win Best Screenplay.
I'd guess this film was more of a success on rental than in theatres, making his win even more remarkable. I can understand
akiratubo's remarks, as I certainly was one of this film's detractors, but I did enjoy it the first time I watched it, and don't understand commenting upon a film one has not looked at...
