    Anyone seen this movie yet? I'm thinking of going to see it with my dad today, just wondered if it was actually worth going to see.

    Saw it Saturday.. I thought it was really good..
    In the end I wish it kept going in the direction it was going instead of turning around
     
  3. I had no idea this movie existed until it showed up on my iGoogle homepage. Looks good.
     
  4. It's really good. I went in expecting a good movie...I wasn't disappointed.
     
  5. I found it a very tense movie to watch... I think I liked it, but I could not sit back and just relax at all...

    WTF was up with the naked scene?! LOL

    Was pretty decent, predictable, nothing special.

    I didn't like how his whole plot got foiled simply by moving the bomb. He was monitoring the room the people were in, why the fuck wasn't he monitoring the room the BOMB was in? Helloooo?

    Naked scene I'm guessing is when he gets arrested? If so yea.. that was just a little odd.. Didn't see the need to be naked.
     
  8. It was fairly predictable, but I don't think they were trying to surprise anyone with a twist, but instead put fresh ideas to an old concept. It was a good movie and enjoyable to watch.

    The cell phone scene was hilarious.
     
  9. the reason he was naked was
    he was making sure they knew he was unarmed I think. If he had on clothes they may have suspected he was armed, and with the fact that he totally tortured the one guy, they may have been edgy and shot him if they suspected he was armed. Knowing he wasn't armed due to no where to conceal a weapon would mean he was less likely to end up dead.

    The stuff that was predictable wasn't really an issue IMO... the movie was tense as you were not sure what crazy ass thing was going to go on next... and on top of that
    he starts out as the victim and turns into the bad ass criminal... so you have mixed feelings on if you like him or not as he def. goes way over the line. I reead that they swapped main roles at the last moment with jamie foxx and the other dude (not sure his name) as well to change the feel of the characters.
     
  10. I liked it. My gf predicted the end. I guessed wrong. I liked it overall. I'd saw it was probably a 6/10. Little replay value, but pretty intense the 1st time through.
     
  11. Come on, Gerard Butler, not what's his name.

    Yea.. The ending was a let down..
     
  14. I thought the ending was perfect, how else do u stop a mastermind killer, use his own ignorance and methods against him. I thought it was fantastic, and how flaud our system really is.
