white-void 0 Posted April 24, 2004 Share Posted April 24, 2004 It's out on DVD from today. Really looking forward to seeing this one again, great movie. Link to post Share on other sites
I_HATE_CHEESE 0 Posted April 24, 2004 Share Posted April 24, 2004 to each their own, personally I didnt jump on the bandwagon with that movie I viewed it and judged it critically and thought it was average. Long and slow. Maybe it was because I dont rate Liam Neeson in general. As a human interest story/documentary it sure is intriquing though but the "movie" per se disappointed.

merryJim 1 Posted April 24, 2004 Share Posted April 24, 2004 I didn't 'jump on the bandwagon' either - I simply really enjoyed the movie. Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted April 24, 2004 Share Posted April 24, 2004 I have never seen it. One of those "big" movies that I never got round to seeing. I'll have to check it out. Link to post Share on other sites
big-will 7 Posted April 25, 2004 Share Posted April 25, 2004 Going to watch it tonight.... I remember liking it (despite being made by Spielberg) Link to post Share on other sites
NoFakie 45 Posted April 25, 2004 Share Posted April 25, 2004 That schmalzy grave scene at the end is the pits. I don't know what it is with people, but Malcolm X (shame on you Spike Lee) and Saving Private Ryan (the laughable "was I a good man?" one) had similar cringeworthy bits tacked onto the end to ram home a message that should be obvious from the preceding two hours. They might as well start the end credits with a big sign saying "THIS FILM WAS MEANINGFUL, OKAY?" Link to post Share on other sites
brit-gob 9 Posted April 25, 2004 Share Posted April 25, 2004 I hate that too. Endings to films often spoil them. Link to post Share on other sites
r45 4 Posted April 25, 2004 Share Posted April 25, 2004 End scene apart, I think it's an excellent movie. Link to post Share on other sites
KlingKlang 1 Posted April 26, 2004 Share Posted April 26, 2004 I missed the hype when it first came out. I didn't even really know about it until a few years ago when I - reluctantly - saw it on video. I thought it was excellent and the 3 hours went really quick. Link to post Share on other sites
sunrise 0 Posted April 26, 2004 Share Posted April 26, 2004 Having a german jewish (non-religious) background it's a must-see for me. Link to post Share on other sites
joshnii 2 Posted April 27, 2004 Share Posted April 27, 2004 Similar for me, sunrise. Link to post Share on other sites
curry 0 Posted April 28, 2004 Share Posted April 28, 2004 I don't like the ending at all either, it really bugs me. But the rest of the movie until then is brilliant, really like it. I'll have to get that one. Link to post Share on other sites
peterson 0 Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 I saw it for the first time last night. Enjoyed it, thought it was really well made. What's with the girl in red? Any particular meaning apart from pointing her out, so to speak? The ending does suck big time though, spoils it. Link to post Share on other sites
