    Anyone else see this movie? Let's discuss. I'm either not sure what they were doing or not sure of the point of everything.

    I'll bite. I was disappointed. Kinda like 3 kings the trailer led me to believe it was a totally different movie. The short haired chickety was hotter than a two dollar pistol. The ending was cliche. John T was too cool for his character. The lines too predictable. And what the hell "Sergeant" Mace Windu doing wearing the insignia of a Specialist? Terrible oversight. In the 'yelling at the soldiers scene he had his spec 4's on and then in the chopper he had his SFC sewn on.

    All of that being said it wasn't 'bad'. I found other things in the movie to enjoy once I realized the plot wasn't going where I wanted it to. Again, the heroine was a hottie, never bad. I liked the mexican chick, too. Yo Quiero ella! And I liked the sound. It was awesome in the theatre I saw it. What'd you think?

    I liked it, I'm guess I'm just not clear what the whole point of everything was, based on the ending.

    Yeah, mrpaige, she was also in The Hunted, which I've heard is one of the worst movies ever.

    The Hunted is a cross of The Fugitive and First Blood. If you liked both of those, you would probably like the Hunted, unless of course you don't like movies that are a bit derivative.
