I thought it was awful. On the DVD I rented it had two versions so we watched the unrated uncut one. It was 2 hours and 45 minutes of pure boredom. Maybe I should have watched the theatrical version, at least it was probably edited. Did you guys like the movie?

havent seen it yet
but im getting pretty tired with movies that are 2,5-3 hours
back in the day they were 90 minutes!!
first blood is 94 min
cobra is 87 min
above the law is 99min and thats pushing it :D
-
It was OK at best. It was based on a true story so that made it a bit more interesting. Defiantly not one of either Denzel's or Crowe's best. I don't mind if a movie is long but at least make it good.
-
Just rented it, but haven't watched yet.
-
I thought it was one of the better movies I had seen.
BTW, anyone seen Jumper? That was a good movie.
-
I just watched it last night. I thought it was very good ;D I like movies based on true stories though, always makes them more intense thinking that stuff actually happened.
-
Good, but I didn't pay $10 to see it in the theater. Buddy of mine had a copy of the DVD two days before it came out! ;D
My favorite part of the movie, definitely, was where he bashed the guys in with the piano!!! :-X

The movie in itself lacks tempo, the script could've been made a little tighter probably.
But Denzel has never been better IMO. Too bad he's this good in a not so very good movie, it kinda takes away from his performance.
And Crowe is awesome as usual.
If you got the DVD, look at a few scenes with Denzel again, and I think you will agree that his acting is absolutely brilliant.
Using small gestures, but still getting through.
Very impressive IMO.

I've never seen it, nor do I care to.
Danielson, have you seen Running Scared? Not with Gregory Hines and Billy Crystal, but the Paul Walker flick...

I think Crowe is a decent, but not a great actor.
Denzel was great and the story itself is good, but the script is kinda fucked up.
Should have just focussed on the Denzel character, not the "cop". But i think Crowe wanted more lines and screen-time till he was equal with Denzel. Originally he even wanted to play the black guy ::).

LOL
I thought that shit ended with Al Jolson?

Crowe and Denzel are what made that movie good.

Yeah I caught that on HBO a few months ago, it was ok. I saw the Gregory Hines one too ;D

They are both great in every movie. Russel has come a long way since he did Virtuosity with Denzel in 1995.

Just OK? ???
Damn, that movie kicked-ass! 8)
