Before the devil knows your dead.

I saw this movie yesterday with Aleeza and Maria and it is chilling, thrilling, and makes you think. (Score!)

The questions raised in this movie are scary. What are people capable of? Is the leader who commands the evil deed the only one to blame or are the people who follow him and have evil actions themselves in following him just as guilty? It also shows you how quickly one simple act not intended to be destructive can spiral out of control and how perhaps you, even a "good" person, could find yourself doing things that will/could/should destroy your life.

Surprisingly enough, Ethan Hawke and Marisa Tomei are able to hang and provide good support to the outstanding performances of Albert Finney and Seymour Hoffman. I recommend you see this one, it is going to make you think though, a lot…about who you are, and what if given the right situation you might be capable of. Freaky!
