thanks for reply again, don't get me wrong i thought it was good just the ending that puzzled me and left me slightly wanting, tho i thought it was genius to offer the villagers money to kill!

I really liked the movie. It got great reviews. Scored 88% on Rottentomatoes.com

You know you can't please everyone!

Patronizing? Taking the piss? Me? Perish the thought.

Well okay but what would your ending be? For Bale to get even that far trying it get to the train with him with bullets flying, I think most folks would believe he should have auditioned for SUPERMAN if it didn't end that way!

im not sure what u mean? but i wouldnt have had bale running with only one leg and leaping roof tops i would of had some sort of shoot out in the hotel as bale was supposed to be a really good shot im not saying i could do better but i do think it got a little unrealistic

I agree it was unrealistic and that was my point and you kind of picked up on it. One leg, leaping rooftops, dodging gun fire from loads of folks, etc. etc.

Damnit!, thanks for the warning that if I started reading this thread it was going to ruin the movie you morons! I started watching this last night and stopped it with 30 minutes left, I guess now I dont have to finish watching it. Someone needs to mark this thread that it is a spoiler!!!

I don't read through threads where I haven't watched the movie. Most any discussion about a flick goes into content even if the OP was looking for just opinions on PQ and AQ. I know this because I have started threads mainly on avsforum and that is what ends up happening!

I assume you found it hard to pass up the opportunity to call someone a moron. I agree that all current discussions shouldn't show on the main page. However, you had no business clicking on the thread if you weren't finished watching the movie. What did you expect to find? War war war. These discussions are a refreshing escape for some of us.

If you insist. I think it was the best Western since Unforgiven, even though I had a few minor reservations about the logic of some of the character's actions. I thought the acting, particularly Crowe and Ben Foster, was exempliary. As for the Blu-ray, the PQ was fantastic, which was exceed by the 7.1 Audio, from which gunshots came from every direction. Okay?

yeah the PQ was good ive been told the audio was good i wouldnt really know not got the right set up for that... yet! In my opinion the actors were great and the script was 70% perfect but 30% lacking i.e. the end.

Well, when you do get the right set up, check it out again...even if you didn't like the ending, you'll certainly enjoy it more.
