    So nobody saw this movie ? I thought it's pretty cool when nothing is like what it seems. The unwinding of the plot is long near the end, but every bits fall into place.

    It was a good movie, but my only gripe was the marketing of the movie was deceptive. I thought it was going to be one of those funny gangster movies a la Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, but it was full of angst and disdain...

    Good movie.

    Along the lines of a "Usual Suspects" type of movie, but not as good as Usual Suspects.

    I saw it and I definately think the writer was sitting around watching Tarantino DVDs, Guy Ritchie DVDs, and the Usual Suspects as he was writing this.

    Saw it last night. I thought it was a decent thriller, nothing great though. Like others said, it's like a mix of "The Usual Suspects" and "Pulp Fiction", but not as nearly as good as those 2 films.

    BTW, is this the most expensive independent movie ever made?

    One of my best friends is the Producer of this film. Chris Roberts.

    I have not seen it yet, but want to.....his company needs a hit.

    :D

    Sorry to derail, but Chris Roberts of the Wing Commander fame?? :eek: My top 5 favorite game of all time?? Dude needs to go back to what he's good at -- coding. I miss his games. :(

    Ultima would make a wonderful movie or mini-series IMO. DaDa, do you know who owns the Ultima license now since Origin defaulted?
