Watched "Taking Lives" last night. I'd recommend it as a rental. Good FBI/Police drama type movie.

Real nice nude scene with Angelina Jolie, if you're into that sort of thing. (I don't know how you couldn't be) Best part of that scene was Jolie was bare assed naked, and Ethan Hawke had all his clothes on!! No man ****. The writer for that scene should get more work, IMO.

I won't say anything about what happens, because that could ruin the movie. Overall, it was a cool story. Best of all, NO COMPUTER GENERATED EFFECTS!!!:D :D

Not much in the sound effects department, not that kind of movie.

    Yeah, it was an OK movie, I found it a LITTLE predictable. Lots of twists, but I think from the get-go you kind of could have figured it out. And the ending was ludicrous, if you ask me.

    But all of it worth it for the nude scene by far ;-)
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    ah but the public library is better, except for the waiting thing. we get all our movies from there and don't have to pay anything.

    You guys watch the rated or unrated version? I doubt the library will carry the unrated... hope we still get "the scene" :D

    I watched the unrated directors cut. That's all Blockbuster had. I'm not sure what would have been removed in the rated version. I didn't think there was anything in there that was too graphic or bloody/violent.

    The nude scene in question was not graphic either. A couple of breast shots. No fur burger or anything.
