Go in cold, and you're likely to emerge with your blood boiling. This has to be seen to be believed.
It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.
There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
