Title: Mamets' Best Work Yet
Review: David Mamet does plot twists and stories that keep the viewer on the edge of their seat better then anyone. Spartan is one of his greatest achievements.Val Kilmer, who I have always enjoyed, has had a bad run for a while. It is great to see him back on his game, and this is arguably his best role since Tomestone. The acting in this movie is top notch, with everyone down to the smallest player adding to the film. At no point was I pulled out of the movie by a performance.The writing is of course superb. Mamet can craft a story like few others. The unique cadence of the dialog is something that really drew me to this movie. While it is unique and has a strange feel to it, this in no way detracts form the movie.Everything about this film works for me, and I am happy to see Kilmer back on his game. This is a must see for me, and a movie I recommend to everyone, hands down.
