We saw it a while ago and definitely agree it was one of the best movies we have seen in a while. Ending is what you would expect except it is twisted from Eastwoods normal ending just enough to make it fresh

I kind of want to see it. I hadn't made my mind up tho. yeah...eastwood plays the badass well....but the way they portray it in the previews, an old guy bringing it to young gangsters, seemed ok at best. I may have to go now though!

The previews don't do it justice, the story is waaaaay better than what your getting out of the little blurb.

very good movie, I may actually purchase when it is released to video. There is a fair amount of racial slur's used in setting up the plot, but that shouldnt detract from the movie itself.

I wondered if that was the case. some previews show the whole darn movie...others leave out all the good stuff on purpose.

gonna have to rent it. I'm pretty hyped to see Watchmen! looks nuts!
