Movie Review

In a year of rather disappointing and flaky movies, it is refreshing to see a serious, character-driven drama about the mistakes in life and the choices we make. Director Spike Lee's latest film, "The 25th Hour," is about just that: What could you have done to change your life? What would you do in your last 24 hours of freedom?

The movie was great. Every character played their roles well and the storyline was on a constant flow. Ed Norton and Brian Cox were great. Barry Pepper and P.S. Hoffman played the very realistic side of two friends' secret reaction to their close friend's departure to jail. Anna Paquin was lovely, but Rosario Dawson stole the spotlight - incredibly hot. Overall, it is a movie I'd recommend to others.
