I'd have wanted to give it 4/5, but decided on giving it three. It's a very, very, VERY high 3 stars. If that even makes sense. It's just that action isn't my favorite genre (but I don't hate it, either!). If it was my fave, I'd give it 4 stars, no doubt.

This here movie is for mystery-lovers, as well as action fans. And if you're not a fan, but can nevertheless appreciate car chases and stuff, then this is for you, too. Read full post...

Basically—and I hope I'm not spoiling anything—the first hour or so of the movie is the first 23 minutes of the movie played over five times, from different points of view. So, yes, you get the same crowd, gunshots, and explosions all repeated five times. But it's great, because every time you see it, there's a new layer added to it, and what you think it true is revealed to be not quite true...at least until you see it from another vantage point. It's sort of like the flashback technique, but not quite.

Argh writing a review for this is so hard! So I'll just say that it's worth watching. It's not a must-see-in-the-big-screen, but I recommend it. Just make sure you don't have those people around you. You know, those people who keep asking questions. (For the record: this movie will make you ask a lot of questions; it's asking them because you're not paying attention that's what's annoying.)

So..yeah. Watch!
