Well. jh Send a noteboard - 27/09/2009 12:49:08 PM
Really?
Why didn't you like it?


It was ridiculously pompous... very american, in that aspect. The movie was totally without self irony, and considering how they kept to facts and other bothersome details, it was a mistake to take the humour out of it. Also, the plot wasn't a plot, it was an excuse to show as many fights as possible.
