After Blood Diamonds, my confidence in Leonardo's acting ability is sealed.
I am sorry, I have no opinion on the matter. I am sure you do. So, don't mind me, I just want to talk audio and pie.

    Ridley Scott's body of work continues to amaze me. I wish the Duellists would come out on blu. It was one of his first movies, but awesome.

    Saw it this past weekend. Fast, fun, multi-layered, sometimes gross, but generally a pretty solid action thriller with a dimensional story line.

    Crowe was the only character I didn't fully enjoy, as he was so overdone and sloppy. But despite overall bad reviews, I really liked the film. It's definitely entertaining and engaging, IMO. I agree about Leo D too.

    I missed watching it at the theater, and didn't realize until it is readied for DVD release already. Worth owning (i.e. re-watchable value is high)?

    Hmmmm.....looks like I'm late on watching this one. Anyway, just watched it on DVD and enjoyed it immensely. Very engaging, requiring one to use their brain because if you're not paying attention, you're lost. I suspect that any bad reviews are likely caused by that and the fact that it's far from PC, which is right up my alley. It's definitely not the usual mindless crap that comes out of Hollywood. I give it a rare 8 out of 10.

    Finally got around to seeing it. Very good movie. I like how DiCaprio is maturing as an actor and I look forward to his movies now. Bump for anyone else who missed it.

    I thought it was awful and easily forgetable.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.
