THE 355
Recommended. The plot, created by Theresa Rebeck, with its undertones, is so gripping and full of twists the star cast: Jessica Chastain, Bingbing Fan, Penélope Cruz, Diane Kruger, Sebastian Stan, John Douglas Thompson are just the icing on the cake. The Atmos-recorded sound is superb: often surrounding, including coming from above, even when watched in ordinary 5.1, the music, the effects, the clarity. Thoroughly entertaining but also pointing out the truth some people put their lives on the line so that everyone else can live peacefully. The women solidarity and the actresses' prowess both send out a powerful feminist message. The finale sets the scene for a sequel and I'm looking forward to it. Aptly selected "Boys Wanna Be Her" song by Peaches is played over the end credits.
