sydney lumet and although one of the old active director and still get game . a few year ago he shoot find me guilty and a proof to everyone that vin diesel can actually act and if he get the opportunity and the right director . if he have retire after this movie ( a true masterpiece in my eye ) and no one could have blame him . but he still go strong and his next movie already announce for 2009. but let stay with this movie right here . the cast list be incredible and their performance top notch . the little nuance in their performance and the real dialogue and or or situation that evolve throughout the movie be just amaze . the ( time ) structure of the movie and that keep your toe the whole time and blending time line so seamlessly and that the editing seem natural or flawless . the story be heighten by that and although even in a normal time structure and it would have be at least a good movie ( drama or thriller ) . i can only highly recommend it and the rest be up to you . represento ) .
