the escapist - movie review :)

The Escapist -- Good Movie

1. Good performances & characters
2. Great plot
   
3. Nice gritty feel
4. Very good splicing and timing
   
5. Nice progression of the movie with jumps in chronology (no idea what the film term for that is)
6. Homage to Ambrose Bierce's "An Occurence at Owl Creek Bridge" (cliche--yes/no?) (just making the reference, not be literature snobby, but to not spoil the ending)
   
7. Ending wasn't as good as the bulk of the movie, but the ending scene is certainly clever, which then made the title clever.
   

I liked it. Watch it. Especially if you're into movies a la Guy Ritchie.
