His understated acting is one of the most rewarding movie experience IMO. This part of the review is what I like best: [quote]During the last twenty minutes or so, the movie takes on a Zodiac-like approach. It’s in the scenes that follow after Jesse’s death that the movie hits top form. In Zodiac we see the result of what happens to someone's morale and character when they become obsessed with something and dedicate their whole lives to it. During these scenes, we track Robert and see how his life has been affected by the deed he set out to do. It has taken it's toll on him and we realize what his true feeling are. It's really simple: he killed his hero. [/quote] Aside from 3:10 to Yuma, and No Country, this is one hell of a movie with a Western flavour/slant! - jedmed Mon, 17 Dec 2007 15:44:11 +0100
