    RIGHT ON ! I also like Morgan Freemans' narration ... I bought the dvd , and watch it once in while . Its the littlest of foes that sometimes kick ass the most effectively ...

    A movie that comes to my mind is American Psycho. I love the movie yet everyone I know hates it. I Thought it was origional and at the end your left wondering if the guy actually killed anyone or if it was just in his mind. I liked how the story was narriated by his thoughts. Another movie that comes to mind is Lawrence of Arabia and Fiddler on the Roof. Many people do not have an appreciation for the older classic movies any more.

    Wha wha wha??? I understand that the people that you know don't like "American Psycho", but everyone I know loves it. It's a great flick.

    And where the hell do you get the idea that alot of people don't like "Lawrence of Arabia"(although, i'm sure you meant the people around you)? It's an amazing classic film. That's like saying most people don't like "Ben Hur".....

    You should slap the people that said those things.

    I was referring to everyone that I know.

    Yes, I love Lawrence of Arabia. It is a wonderful flick.

    Lawrence of Arabia is considered a classic and is number #28 on IMDbs Top 250 films list. So it's a generally well liked movie.

    Yeah and I'm one of those people. When you read the book then watch the film, there's no comparison. Who the hell gave Bale the role of Bateman? There's no denying that he's a good (well, more like reasonable) actor but I wanted more menace and a lot more vanity. At the end of the day, it's another poor Easton Elis movie translation. Yeah, I'm saying Less Than Zero and Rules of Attraction were s**t. Read the books. Makes the movies look piss poor.

    I thought he did a good job on the vanity part but Bale did not seem menacing enough. But I liked it never the less. I wonder if the sequel they made to it is any good?

    Actually, it was Mila Kunis. Jackie from "That 70's Show" and Meg from "Family Guy" played the psycho. And no....it wasn't very good.


    It did have Sgt. TJ Hooker himself......William Shatner, though.

    It also sported two actresses from Yawn. I didn't realize...

    Sequel was a serious waste of financial pathos . I loved Bales acting when he plays Huey Lewis and and hacks that dork ... "The Machinist" is great and I love "Equalibrium " ...
