A good movie

Since it was the last movie directed by Terry Gilliam and, of course, the last movie starring the late Heath Ledger, I was really eager to watch this flick. Well, it was basically one of those typical Gilliam features, it is definitely an acquired taste and you either love them or you don't. To be honest, the story was rather messy and confusing but it was visually  definitely one of the most ambitious movie directed by Gilliam so far. Indeed, this time, he went all CGI on us and, I must say, the end-result turned out to be quite impressive. Furthermore, you had a nice cast (Andrew Garfield, Christopher Plummer, Lily Cole, Tom Waits, Heath Ledger, Johnny Depp, Jude Law, Colin Farrell) and they all delivered some solid performances. So, the plot was a little bit shabby but, considering they lost their main actor in the middle of the production, they did a pretty good job recovering the whole thing and it was, at least, not as depressing as 'Tideland', Gilliam's previous directing effort. To conclude, it is fortunate that we had the chance to see Heath Ledger's last feature film and it is really unfortunate that we won't see him again, it is a typical Gilliam feature, really gorgeous and imaginative to look at and it is definitely worth a look.
