That lady redefines fine acting. She simply doesn't know how to do bad performance, and each time you see her is a feast. Film after film after film...Drives home painfully the memories of her losing Oscar to that... what's her name? That one went right into oblivion where she belongs, but Cate is non-stoppable.
I simply can't get enough of her, and this one is just her usual best. A must see for this reason alone, as the rest is kinda OK, not more.

Follow Ups:
Bandits, w/Blanchett, Bruce Willis and Billy Bob Thornton. The film is prolly only above average. Its worth a rental tho for its unorthodox timeline and totally unexpected turns. A non realistic ending pulls overall rating down, but Blanchett steals every scene shes in. She is cast against type and pulls the role off perfectly. The movie takes off when her character is introduced. The scene in which Bonnie Tyler's song I Need A Hero, is playing, is magic. **1/2 easily

Must disagree on this. Found it to be a waste of talent. I forgot she was in this.

I saw it on a plane. Don't recall much about the film itself, just Cate.

That paltrow -- she is in a new film Proof with Sir Anthony Hopkins...and a few critics I've read have said she puts herself right in this movie -- Ie her performance in proof is academy award worthy and she won;t like win -- The Oscars are a series of political moves -- they owe someone an academy award. You;ll see Blanchett get one in one of her weaker roles sometime down the line.She kept the Aviator airborne with her Katheran Hepburn performance.
She's been fantastic since her first notewirthy movie -- Oscar and Lucinda. And she kept the uneven Elizabeth watchable -- too bad the film was so crappy compared to the vastly superior BBC production. And Glenda Jackson was untouchable -- not even Cate.

She's wonderful in Ken Russels "The Music Lovers" and "Salomes Last Dance" which also stars the inimitable Stratford Johns... I agree that her BBC role as "Elizabeth R" is untouchable; a series that was made at a pressure cooker pace on a shoe string budget
