Review of The Messenger (2009) by James D — 17 Apr 2012
I thought this movie was superb. It didn't follow the typical movie plot curve at all, it was intense and felt extremely real. There were a number of really long takes that would have been quite difficult to pull off.
The acting was top notch. Ben Foster reminded me a lot of Sean Penn and Woody was very good too. Not a lot really happens in the movie and it might be too slow for some people but I found it incredibly rewarding.
