I knew it wasn't meant to be an action movie. I have not read the book but did read a bit about the movie before going to see it. The problem I had with the movie was that it was too slow moving. The fact that the movie was tilted more towards the mindset of the soldier was fine, but the only real message that was conveyed was that the soldiers only care about squeezing the trigger and nothing else matters... a bunch of trigger happy killing machines.... the movie was just really bland. Jamie Foxx was pretty good considering though... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how to get a fax number that sends and receives faxes using your current email address http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=64 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:184178 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
