A History of Violence

[Aimster]

ya? no?

 

[SarcasticDwarf]

nay

 

[Special K]

I thought it was worth a rental at least.

 

[Coquito]

Very brutal movie. Decent flick.

 

[imported_LoKe]

Story sucked, action was awesome.

 

[EvilYoda]

yah, loved it.

 

[Excelsior]

I liked it.

 

[Sphexi]

Lots of violence, some gore, hot 69 with his wife (nudity included), but the story got kind of lame at the end. I liked it more when his background was a mystery, once you find out the truth it kind of starts dragging.

Worth a rental, absolutely. Nothing more, however. There are some really good parts, but there are some lines that are almost laughable.

 

[ThePresence]

I liked it.

 

[shortspanishguy]

yay

There's a 69 sex scene (not that graphic but still notable), a really hot angry sex scene (not rape, she is pissed at him -- do it on the stairs!), full frontal nudity of the female lead, and top that off with some great violent deaths, and you have the makings of a good flick. Not Oscar material by any means, but it's a decent way to spend two hours.

Exactly. Some times I was watching it and got really into it (violent scenes, etc.) and then some things were WTF? worthy.

 

[Legendary]

Worth $5, not 10.
Ruthless Aragorn FTW.

Sorry to bump an old thread.
I just watched this last night. I thought it was great. I was drunk though...

She's not a natural blonde

Contrived plot twists galore.

 

[Lonyo]

Huge pile of turd.

 

[Trente]

It was fine, nothing spectacular though.

:thumbsup:

You would think if you keep shooting everyone who comes to bother you, the cops would take you away.

Also Rambo's son has a dormant super-fighter gene which springs to life one day as he single-handedly trounces the biggest jock in school and his lackey while never actually getting into a fight in his life before that moment.

heh before that the son was babbling on like woody allen what high schooler is like that?

wasn't much story behind it all anyways. plot seemed cut short somehow.

I thought it was excellent. An interesting commentary on the way we perceive violence.
