i think he is so far and away the coolest actor out there that i have a hard time thinking up #2 because it is a pale pale comparision. he has done good work in a ton of different roles and has been believable in all of them, even the stinkers.

patrick bateman, batman, trevor reznick--all the same guy?!

enough said. if i had a sister she would HAVE to have his babies. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] J.

It was awesome. A very good movie. Some funny parts throughout. Both Crowe and Bale are very good. Certain parts of the ending were a bit predictable, but it was excellent nonetheless.

I read a review today that said people that love westerns are going to hate the ending.

I dont know what that means really.

I went to see it last night and though it was fanstastic. It's been a very long time since I've seen a good western so I especially enjoyed this one. I was hooked from opening coach robbery. Great plot, good action, and great acting and I thought the ending was excellent. It has been a while since I enjoyed myself at the movies as much as I did last night.

I was reminded of how much love Russel Crowe when he isn't making A Good Year.

i'm a bit surprised by the responses. i saw it last night and thought it was a bit meh.

i didn't think it was a bad movie. it wasn't my kind of movie though. my problem with the movie was this: while i was watching it, i was thinking to myself "this isn't real. this is obv just a movie. this stuff could never actually happen. people would never talk this way. etc." the dialogue was too dramatic. and the drama just stuck me as too pronouced.

i much prefer movies where i feel like i'm just watching a glimpse into a day/week/life of a ("real") person. some examples off the top of my head: sideways, once, two girls and a guy

(side note: russell crowe is always playing these uber-charismatic roles, and honestly he just strikes me as someone who wouldn't really be that charismatic if i met him on the street. i do agree though that christian bale is the real deal.)

Saw it and thought overall it was a bland tedious action flick that just happened to take place in the Wild West.

Both actors are decent and the supporting characters are solid but thought the story was dull, contrived, and predictable...Crowe's character was laughably lame at times. Some scenes made no sense to me, ending made me roll my eyes.

Didn't think much of the directing/cine...basically non stop tight shots.

Hopefully Assasination of Jesse James will be much better...at the very least the directing will be better.

Thumbs down but worth seeing.
