Trance

"We keep secrets from lots of people, but most of all we keep them from ourselves. And we call that forgetting."

Filmology Rating - 3.25 out of 4

I truly enjoyed this movie!  Simon, portrayed by James McAvoy, is an art auctioneer; Franck, portrayed by Vincent Cassel, is a thieving hit-man; Elizabeth, portrayed by Rosario Dawson, is a hypnotherapist determined to set everything straight.  This movie has an amazing soundtrack, a great plot, superb acting, and is visually stunning without CGI enhancement.  Based on the trailers, I was pleasantly surprised as the plot unfolded.  Trance kept me engaged for its entirety, and I was unable to guess major plot points.  The action scenes and the drama scenes are equally compelling.  The motives of the characters are not fully revealed until the very end, making you pay close attention if you want to piece it all together before that.  Overall, Trance is a wonderful psychological thriller.
