"A movie is not good because it arrives at conclusions you share, or bad because it does not. A movie is not about what it is about. It is about how it is about it: about the way it considers its subject matter, and about how its real subject may be quite different from the one it seems to provide." - Roger Ebert, from the introduction to "Awake in the Dark" (2006)

The film was a very special surprise for me, especially since I rated "Shaun of the Dead" a C+.
If you're interested in sitting down for a long, long, long, long read, I wrote about a 1000-word review of it in the "What film have you seen today?" thread.
