frailty

my first thought was..."here's another movie making christians out to be 'crazies' again". the reason i get tired of movies with said motif is because so many 'christians' are 'crazies'. but frailty proved itself to be a work completely opposite of what i thought. it deliberately lead me down this path only to slap my face with an incredible plot twist. i love that in a movie. rarely, and i mean rarely, am i so voluntarily duped. when it happens it is sheer cinematic ecstasy. then, just as im totally falling in love with this film, they do it to me again, within moments of the first plot twist. just as im about to hit the floor from a left hook i never saw, they kick me in the gut, completely knocking the viewing wind out of my lungs. this was hot.

when i finished watching this movie, i wanted to believe. i'll leave lance to discuss the beauty or lack there of in regards to the form and structure of the piece. suffice it to say...through getting lost in this film i felt more connected to reality than i have in a long time.

on a scale of 1 to 10... i give it a thumbs up and homerun.
