rmI'm not actually going to review this until I've taken Kali to the screening on Monday, but it's very very good and you should see it.
Do not follow the cut tag unless you've read the book or seen it. I just wanted to say this before everyone else does.
It is such an incredible meta act of genius to cast David Bowie, a man who has made, remade and detroyed himself so many times over (witness: Ziggy Stardust) as Tesla, the man who in this story makes and remakes and therefore effectively kills other men over and over.
Also, do not watch with the idea of a "twist" in your head. Merely it is an onion, slowly being pulled back to reveal things you simply shouldn't know.
Most Slytherin thing I've ever seen.
