    I saw this film in a rather weird way. I arrived late in the room and thus missed the first 10 minutes. As a result, a film that could have been medium at best became really good. Each character was background-less, their relationships were surrounded by mystery and their motives...( read more) totally unknown. I got suddenly thrown in the action avoiding the usual romantic and annoying character-building scenes. So a film to see, but try to avoid the first ten minutes or so.
