Wow, it was a great movie...
All good actors and the beatiful Rachel Weisz, I think this movie worths every penny I payed for it...

Definetly recommended....

Read the book which I didn't think was all that great. In the book, it was tobacco manufacturers - they've changed it in the movie to gun manufacturers. I heard the acting was good, but I didn't like the plot in the book so I doubt I'll like the movie - unless they've changed the plot in the movie for the better as well.

The book was 100x better than the movie. First of all...the movie was changed so much due to time constraints. The characters weren't the way they were originally portrayed, etc.

Why attack gun manufactorers when attacking the cigarette industry helps EVERYONE (chances are someone smokes and you smell cig smoke once a day unless you live in the woods somewhere [i.e. Unabomber]), whereas attacking the gun industry helps only those in the ghetto.

just saw it - it was good in that the story and not the debate took center stage. I liked how the presented Rachael's fight, with the lil flashbacks. I didn't really understand that Philly guy's real role in it, maybe there was more to him in the book??

I think the acting was top notch. I would give it 3.5/4 stars
