atonement

at least two of the points in the 7/10 are specifically for the most technically amazing shot i have ever seen in a movie, the long pan across the beach featuring hundreds of extras and repeatedly coming back to dialogue. it was absolutely amazing and i could've watched it forever.
other than that it was an okay story with okay acting (i can't stand the heightened posh english accent, it really taints performances)...
the main pleasure about watching this is the technique to the filming: the cinematography, the setting, the colour, the soundtrack... all of that was just astounding.

oh yes, and i didn't like the 'Titanic ending'

7/10
