    Heather and I both liked this. It was our first movie date in quite a while. A good action war flick without too much politics involved.

    This one started out a little slow, but builds in action/suspense as it goes. Don't stop watching. The fact that it's based on a true story makes it more interesting.

    Heather gave this 4 stars...I'd say 3.5. I had my doubts from the previews but it turned out to be a good semi-realistic scenario action flick. I was a bit disappointed with the "moral equivalence" message at the end...but it was still and enjoyable action flick.

    This actually could have been a good movie but I coudn't get past the Hollywood angle of glorifying the suicide bomber cause and making the US govt out to be the bad guy for trying to capture the terrorists.

    Casey Affleck mumbled his way through the lead role in this film. The plot made it seem like this movie came to closure about 5 times...and each time I was really hoping the movie was REALLY over!

    Watched this on Thanksgiving with the family. Heather said it was difficult to not see John Travolta when looking at the mother. We also both felt like it was entertaining in parts, but hard to pay attention for the whole movie.

    Rental. Awful. This was a poor attempt at modernizing the story of Marie Antoinette..presumably so teenagers would watch. Hard to believe they danced to the Cure during the French Revolution. The movie is void of accurate French history.

    I don't want to spoil the ending...but Bond beats the bad guys again. This is just when Bond gets his 007 status. Plenty of unrealistic chase scenes, Bond outrunning machine gun bullets and of course his latest fast car, an Aston Martin DBS
