Review of The Beach (2000) by Rahul S — 04 Apr 2010

Clearly a movie that is for those who believe there is something known as perfection. For me...the movie meant perfection moves with time...like love and pain..we move on.

Excellent direction with excellent writing. Dialogues superb and somewhat added quality to the movie only due to the strong performances by each actor. Leo is probably one of the most refreshing talents in Hollywood...and 10 years on with Shutter Island he has only improved. Definitely one of the most under-rated actors in Hollywood who shows not only versatility in his acting but also shows soul and depth in a film that dates 10 years back! Deserves a 5/5!
