While I was watching it I thought it was good, not great...but it's been sinking in for the last few days or so...and all I want to do is see it again and see the next Volume as soon as possible.
Today at work . . .
Reading the script. This is one of the most intricate scripts that I have ever read. It's really quite brilliant. I'm going to try and only read the first few chapters (those included in Volume 1) so I don't ruin it for me, but it might be tough to practice that kind of self discipline.
And the biggest part of this movie I think...is that it seems to effortless. It kind of felt like he wrote this over a weekend, and it just flowed right out of him as if summoning the spirits of every great action filmmaker of the 60s and 70s. Amazing.
