Movie Review: Atonement

Guys, good chick flick credit here :)  Just kidding, I had seen the trailers way back when, and in truth, I'll watch just about anything that Kiera Knightley is in, but even that aside, it was a fantastic movie.  I've been a fan of James McEvoy for a while now, but I believe this is probably his best performance to date.  He was great in Last King of Scotland, but he really outdid himself in this movie.

I won't give away anything, but listen carefully to the music and the sound effects, it will hit you at the end.  The story is basically about something overseen, and misinterpreted and how the person tries to atone for their mistakes.  Wonderful performance by the little girl who plays Briony, and Kiera is simply wonderful.  Definitely take the time to watch this movie.  Feel free to come back and post your comments after you see it, or if you've already seen it, let us know what you thought.

    I didn’t care for the book, but I’m glad to hear the movie is a good one.
