I'm tired of action movies. They all seem to have 1 guy destroy a whole army of men by themselves =/

I liked the song at the end of the credits too.

Ok. Well personaly I think that umm... IT'S AN ACTION MOVIE? That's what an action movie is. Lots of action with a fairly good plot. Doesn't have to be amazing. If I wanted an awsome plot I'd watch like (crap can't remember name, amazing movie came out in us but was'nt translated into english so it's still in spanish. Sorry I don't know the name right now ><)

I'm not sure. I have only seen the one that was released in usa. I don't know if that was the original or not. My guess is that it is not.

Sorry, but it doesn't look that appealing. If you say its a lot like the Bourne series, then I have practically seen it already. I mean you have all these movies about a person who goes rambo on all these bad guys, and some how prevails. I rather have a movie that is original and has a strong plot. Maybe I am just sick of all these action movies that have been coming out lately.


If you can't take the heat, don't post in a forum.

eh it was MUCH better than what I had expected from watching the trailers. but that does not of course mean that it was really awesome. I would give it a 2.5/5 (which is no where near the worst movies on my list). Action was thrilling, but plot and logistics were too low.

saw it almost 10 days ago also, torrent though (of course).
from what i know, the movie has been out in other parts of the world (asides from US) in 2008. and i believe the version i saw was from a release in an English-speaking country.
not sure though.

favorite part...
"I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for ransom, I can tell you I don't have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let my daughter go now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you"


came out 14 August 2008 in Australia :)

I never even heard of it, I saw it on a torrent site, and a couple days later I looked it up on IMDB, that's around when I saw it.

Then a fay days later I got the song from the end of the credits lol, that was the 20th so it was out in dvdrip torrents before that.

IMDB says it was released yesterday though.
