Review of Closer (2004) by Mary H — 17 Sep 2010
A stunning look at modern relationships. The deception, lying, cheating, pretending to love someone. It's scary to face the reality that there are tons of people out there just like the characters in this movie.
How people stray emotionally, play games with each other, and instigate arguments for no other reason than to hurt each other. If you can watch this and draw no comparison to your life, then I consider you lucky.
Those that claim this isn't realistic? Please, that's just plain illogical to try and cover the entire spectrum of human experience with such a narrow blanket. Life/love isn't black and white.
There are many, many grey areas. Great movie.
