Truly superb. I just rewatched this for the third time, it's one of those 'keeper' movies that gets better with every viewing. Even once the twists are revealed, it's fun to watch just to admire how intricately the whole thing's put together.

There's not a single weak performance here - I thought all the leads were excellent. "That" scene with Carrie-Anne Moss is superb - it really caught me by surprise. The dialogue overall is terrific, very natural, and the understated score also seems to fit well.

To see this movie in the top 10 of all time is pushing it a bit, I think, but it's definitely one of the greats : it thoroughly deserves a 9 or 10 on imdb.
