Sir Shertown Pimp January 2, 2005 Share Sir Shertown Pimp Member January 2, 2005 Wow, 9/10, this movie was amazing, jamie fox was the unusal hero, Tom cruise was great as the brutal villian, and no sappy love story from the very hot jada pinkett smith. Great rent guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fatty January 13, 2005 Share Fatty GC Founder January 13, 2005 I just bought this movie. Halfway through I was pulled into a FightClub feeling, as Max played out the Victor role. The ending was so-so...kinda your usual ending (won't spoil)...but the irony of where Victor was left was amusing. (ps. yomamma...why are you on a 4 star system here? get with it!)

Guest zerodamage January 15, 2005 Share Guest zerodamage Guests January 15, 2005 One of the best movies I've seen in a very long time. Tom Cruise is such a talent. Jamie Fox is a great actor who needs more great roles like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoMamma January 15, 2005 Share YoMamma Member January 15, 2005 (ps. yomamma...why are you on a 4 star system here? get with it!) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Cause my local newspaper uses the 4 star system. Btw, that newspaper is the Chicago Tribune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyklik February 23, 2005 Share Cyklik Member February 23, 2005 The acting was good, the action was good, the character interaction was good...but I couldn't stand the movie. The plot was unbelievably thin, and it just bothered the heck out of me. I'm a big Cruise fan, and I really wanted to like this, I just can't.

YoMamma February 23, 2005 Share YoMamma Member February 23, 2005 If you wanna see a much better movie by the same guy who made this watch Heat. I mean I liked collateral a lot, but I LOVED Heat. There's a lot more 'plot' to it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
appalachian_fox February 23, 2005 Share appalachian_fox Member February 23, 2005 So is the plot ubelievable from your years of hitman experience, or were you expecting it to be down-to-earth and not a for-fun action experience? I'm not picking on you, D o D (well maybe a little because I'm a jackleg) but I was just wondering, if you weren't expecting a believable plot, would you have enjoyed it? I walked in expecting something totally made up, not necessarily true to life, and enjoyed it. I'm just wondering if it's a difference in expectations, since G00t didn't seem to like it either.

MrDuke February 24, 2005 Share MrDuke Member February 24, 2005 My wife rented it and I thought, " Oh man, here we go..." She kept checking to see if I was asleep, which usually happens when I watch a movie. I didn't sleep through this one. It kept my interest the whole way through. Cheesy-ironic ending, though. <------- new word? I just thought of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auggybendoggy February 24, 2005 Share auggybendoggy Member February 24, 2005 I liked the irony. but the hitman telling the taxi driver "tell him your gonna stick this cab up his fat !@#$#$" was sooooo funny i couldn't stop laughing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I just thought the plot lacked any depth. Maybe I'm just too used to movies with all sorts of twists and revelations and whatnot. This was extremely straightforward and that may have been why it just didn't do anything for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
appalachian_fox February 28, 2005 Share appalachian_fox Member February 28, 2005 That makes sense. My wife pretty much had the same opinion as you...Plus she didn't like the hanging ending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
