Ratings and reviews

Apart from some of the heavy handed metaphors, this is an amazing movie with excellent acting, directing and screen writing that adds unexpected depth to a "block buster" movie. The violence is mostly off-screen, which gives the losses so much more impact whilst preserving the sanctity of a more sensitive viewer. The score is beautiful and well used. What a good and thoroughly enjoyable movie.

Weak plot, too long, boring. Characters were shallow and derivative. Subtitles weren't included in the Google Play version and would have been helpful as the ooo ooo ooo *gesticulate* was the main dialogue. The good reviews are odd as the reviewers must come from a different universe, maybe just shills. Avoid.

Amazing movie, everything in the movie is so exciting and crazy yet challenging and strangely enough forward as Ceaser goes though everything. Especially when he wants to kill the colonel after what the colonel did and the emotion is so amazingly displayed as Ceaser goes though all of this, one of the MOST AMAZING and EXCITING movies EVER!
