Thank you! I give 'The Place Beyond the Pines' my highest recommendation possible. You may or may not share the same emotional connection I found in this film, but I hope that you do enjoy it.

Loved your blog..it is a great tribute to the Great Roger Ebert! Great job my friend....

Brilliant review mate, i just saw this last night...wonderful film

Have to agree on all fronts. This is one of the few mainstream films to successfully combine amazing visuals and great storytelling, to create something with more depth and meaning. And it's subject matter can be interpreted differently depending on the individual. It's a feast for the eyes, the mind, and even the heart. Definitely one of the most underrated of the year.

I agree. It needed something to bring it to the next level. I didn't feel the hatred between the two leaders and gangs enough. Great Review.

exactly what i felt too! you just said it a lot better then i did :)

I completely agree. Excellent review!

Good review, Corleone - I think just the same. Movie could have been something more, had they tried to rise above that formula.
