This is probably the most amazing film I have ever seen. Amazing story, cinematography, special effects, cg usage, everything. All of it rings true of a carefully planned and executed script. The unraveling of a mans life in this sort of detail can only reflect into ones own self experience. Watch it at least twice with time in between to gain a full understanding of the film. Every line and every scene is exceptionally executed enveloping one in a story of grand proportions. If I had the opportunity to ever make a film i would make something of this caliber. I look forward to more from this director as he clearly has a handle on consciousness not seen in many films now days. Very Highly recommended.

King Solomon's Mines
(2004)
ordinary, tepid, seriously average
6 August 2006
I picked this movie on the cover alone thinking that i was in for an adventure to the level of "Indiana Jones and The Temple of Doom". Unfortunately I was in for a virtual yawn. Not like any yawn i have had before though. This yawn was so large that i could barely find anything of quality in this movie. The cover described amazing special effects. There were none. The movie was so lightweight that even the stereotypes were awfully portrayed. It does give the idea that you can solve problems with violence. Good if you want to teach your kids that. I don't. Keep away from this one. If you are looking for family entertainment then you might find something that is more inspiring elsewhere.
