The Matador

It's a really good movie, which seriously surprised me. Very human and touching. Brosnan is at the top of his game and Kinnear finally lives up to the word "actor". Sure, you can say he was pretty good in "As Good as it Gets", but there he was carried by Jack (not Bauer). Although I did see a bit of the "As Good..." role in his performance in "Matador", esp. when Julian makes a pass at him in the bar. Hope Davis is superb, but then again, she doesn't have a lot of screen time and I don't remember her in any other movies.

Too bad yesterday I watched "Ultraviolet". For stupid action flicks (and it wasn't a good action flick either), it's, well, pretty stupid.
