Everything is Illuminated

This past weekend I saw another film worth mentioning. The Title was Everything Is Illuminated, Staring Elijah Wood. Normally im not a big fan of anything wood does other than the lord of the rings, however this movie had an interesting touch too it. The movie opens with a very independent aspect too it, except the filming and directing is top notch, The story is that of a jewish boy trying to learn about his family's past, in germany post war. The first half of this movie had me wondering if it was my new favorite film, however the second half made me question how great it really was. I still rank the movie about a 8.5 out of 10, and the filming was quite well done.
