People seem to slam this one down into the ground, although I can't see why (maybe it has to do with the unrealistic expectations people nowadays seem to have of films). As a massive fan of the George Orwell book, I found this gripped me from the start. Okay, so there are more than a few discrepancies, but these are more than made up for by the outstanding voice acting and the atmosphere. The musical score is one of the most apt and best composed that I've ever heard, and it's worth watching the movie for that.
If you haven't read the book, you'll probably enjoy the movie more than if you have, but either way this is a must-see!
