Pretty decent movie. Went by extremely fast. Some violent stuff but the critics are talking that part of the movie up too much. Violence is in everything nowadays from cartoons to games. This is nothing out of the ordinary. If you like action and intense scenes, this is for you.

Sorry, Agent, I didn't see this until now. I went on Saturday with my son in Missouri, he wanted to go. As for the movie, I didn't really care for it much, it just seemed kind of strange to me. It was a long movie, and reading subtitles is not my kind of fun, although it did add some realism to the movie. Just seemed like Mel tried to accomplish too much historically in a short period of time, and just didn't hit home with me. Either the main character should have been more of a mythical character with what he could do, or it should have been more realistic. I really can't explain it, but I never got caught up in any of it to any degree. And, there were a couple of humor attempts with the subtitles and words that just seemed stupid to me. It was visually very entertaining, and the lack of major actors was kind of refreshing. I would not really recommend it to anyone.

i have no desire to see that movie either. i wouldn't go if there was free beer and a seafood buffet. won't rent it when it comes out or watch it on HBO either.

of course that doesn't mean it will go under. i wouldn't stand in line for one of those xbox nintendo thngs either and you know what a big hit those things are.
i just rented this today because my son said it was good. IT WAS GREAT!

i had no desire but gave it a shot. well worth the 2+ hours :thumb:
