KALLISTUART

Mission - To assassinate a top ranking Nazi Officer, Reinhard Heydrich. Not many films leave me feeling this much emotion.. so much so, I felt the need to write my 2nd review in around 5 years! I thought the casting was an interesting choice and Cillian Murphy and Jamie Dornan didn't disappoint but I really loved Anna Geislerova. Although most of the action is towards the end of the film, the lead up to the events gave a good insight to the characters which I find some films lack as they are too busy concentrating on special effects, rather than getting to know the characters. . I found myself holding my breath on many occasions! A truly gripping finale and I will definitely be watching this again.

As an avid fan of QT, I was not disappointed with this movie.

I thought it was fantastic how he could combine many different elements, B&W, colour, Cartoon in one movie without making it seem sloppy was genius!

The exaggeration of gore was absolutely fantastic. It was like a blood fest but without the total seriousness of it all (although the faint hearted might disagree).

Fantastic casting (as you would expect!!).

The only thing that I would say is that it did not necessarily have to be done in 2 parts. Obviously it was a money thing but then again maybe it was too "blood and gore" for one sitting.

I really thought that this film was good.

Kevin Spacey plays a film executive(Buddy) but he is also the boss from hell. He treats everyone below him with complete and utter contempt - in particular his new assistant (Frank Whaley) Guy. He thinks that he is teaching Guy valuable lessons on how to get ahead in the film world but how much humiliation, abuse and insults can a human being take before before they snap? Well Guy does snap and Buddy all of a sudden is on the receiving end of the abuse........

I'm sure that we can identify that we have all had less desirable bosses in the past and it does give me some satisfaction that payback is given to those bosses - even if it is only in the movies!
