Not just because Rachel Weiz gets her arse out either!
Tis a cracking film.

One of the levels in COD5 is a real rip off of it though!

Thats not a bad thing though is it? i know exactly what bit your on about and its great! in fact, i think CoD5 has nicked quite a lot out of the film, well cetainly the stalingrad stuff, the train depo, the hangar etc.

Not a bad thing no.

The bit when you're in the fountain and have to crawl and grab that blokes gun is such a rip off though, its so blatant.

But yes you are right it takes quite a lot from the film, which is no bad thing.

Saw Yes man the other day, thought it was pretty good, and funny.

Liked the message it was giving out, so decided to buy the book!

It's the concluding part of Unforgiven at 9:00, so I'll see how that turns out.

I liked it as well. Thought Rhys Darby was brilliant in it, playing pretty much the same character as in Flight of the Conchords. Worth a watch!

I thought it turned out badly. Dreadful ending to what had been a well written & acted piece of drama.

Yeah, watched it. Seen the old version although the plot was a bit implausibe. Okay I guess.

Doesn't Clint shoot Gene Hackman?

What's wrong with that?

Unless Gene was dead all along. Like Bruce.

And then they all leave in a spaceship.

Have to agree, Hos. Every part of episode three was very predictable.

"Two boys and a girl from County Clare" (or somesuch). Irish humour, traditional music and a few good laughs. Okay.

Probably a similar response here. Passed a couple of hours well enough.
