There wasn't one thing I liked about it.... plus they used wires throughout. I'm surprised you didn't comment on that. LOL Tears of the Sun looks good. Willis is always a dependable actor. His success comes because he can play a wide range of roles. If Seagal could do that, then he'd still be making movies that debut in theatres. Oh well, that's the past. Now it's off to STV land with Van Damme.
BTW... I saw "Q&A" before. It wasn't bad, nothing too memorable. The acting was good, but the ending was lame, with Nick Nolte shooting it out in the precicnt. That made no sense. Armand Assante was the main reason I watched it. He's an under-rated actor who's been doing supporting roles for years.
I said that I thought the Seagal movies were better than they were given credit for and ok. The critics are more concerned about destroying Seagals career right now and a lot of them dont even watch the movie itself..I did'nt like XXX at all-I guess it was more for the teenage crowd and did'nt impress me at all..Someone gave me the dvd and when i watched it I told them that they could have it back and give it to someone else because i wont be watching it again..
Ya boy Denzel just signed on to make a pretty good movie though-"Man On Fire" and it is being directed by Tony Scott(Ridley's brother and one of my favourite directors). This looks like a pretty good upcoming movie..
