Run Time: 101 mins
Genre: Crime/Drama/Mystery/Thriller
Main Cast: James McAvoy, Rosario Dawson, Vincent Cassel


Review:

Trance directed by acclaimed Oscar winning director Danny Boyle is a psychological thriller and heist film combined. The movie revolves around three characters: Simon (James McAvoy) who is hired to rob an art auction since he works there, Franck (Vincent Cassel) the gangster who hires Simon and Elizabeth (Rosario Dawson) a psychotherapist who tries to help Simon escape from the gang. The movie is filled with twists and turns till the end and moves at a relentless pace. It’s stylishly shot and an extremely visually appealing piece of work by the director.

All the leads have put in a tremendous performance and it shows in the way the movie never loosens its grip on the thrill quotient. James McAvoy in particular is immensely enjoyable to watch on screen and complements the movie very well. Trance’s storyline is multi layered hence might confuse you at times but it all comes together at the end to give you a satisfying end. None of the twists are predictable which catch you unawares and leave you wanting for more. Trance is a completely enjoyable movie that keeps you on the edge of your seat till the very end.
I give it 4/5 stars
★★★★
