| | Posted: | | | | Cool, i just got the "Seeking Justice" . But havent seen it yet. But of the stuff i've seen in the trailer. Looking good. And when it comes to Drive Angry, i havent bought it yet. I've only heard negative things about that one. What you think of it? |

| | Posted: | | | | For Drive Angry:
Pros:
- Completely over the top action sequences that were a lot of fun. The motel shoot-out was very good.
- Amber Heard was made for this role. Sassy, take-no-crap attitude is perfect. She's good to look at also.
- William Fichtner is great as The Accountant and Billy Burke is also good as the cult leader.
- The film wasn't afraid to be a little unconvential in its direction for a studio film. It's firmly tongue in cheek whilst not becoming a parody of itself.
Cons:
- Although Nicolas Cage isn't terrible here, he is the weak link. One facial expression and quite monotonous line delivery, whilst applicable for some scenes, isn't necessary all the way through.
- The supernatural aspect gets silly and sometimes even lost among all the action.
- The dialogue isn't quite up to the standard you would hope. There are some good segments, but it mainly falls to the wayside.
Overall:
Rent it. 3/5 |

Whispering: If you have it (on bluray) you got it with english subtitle? And where did you buy it?
Thanks. Need to have subtitle I bought the Korean BD/DVD LE release from yesasia. The BD is region A so i can't watch it. It has english subtitles, but Korean releases don't have subtitles for any of the extras. Which is a shame. The movie was the 3rd most viewed film in Korea last year, most viewed, if you only count the Korean movies. |

| | Posted: | | | | Hm, i see. Shame the extras isnt subtitled. specially for us who doesnt speak\understand asian languages.
But i ordered the movie from amazon.co.uk. So i both hope the bluray is region 2\b, or region free. Since it doesnt say anything. And that one is with subtitles (english only) I'm looking forward to that movie.
Hope it is as good as it looks in the trailer! |

4.5/5 Not to quibble but <G> 'The Sand Pebbles' was a great role, but i kind of lean towards his portrayal of 'Virgil Hilts' in 'The Great Escape'. With a strong nod to Frank Bullit in 'Bullit' and another nod to Tom Horn in 'Tom Horn' .. his last movie. Of course there are others that could be named as Steve McQueen kind of became a force of nature. Hard to ever go wrong with him. DSig |
