I must say you seem to have a strict rating system. I would rate The Constant Gardner a similar 4/5 rating, but wasn't nearly as impressed with it as you were. I found it too obvious and it failed to really grab me. Granted its been nearly 10 months since I've seen it so its not exactly fresh in my mind anymore. I appreciate your rather extensive review, and in general your contributions to this site thusfar, a new reviewer always helps the rest of us to raise the bar a little higher.
