Yeah, not really groundbreaking in the story way as it's basically a stew of like 8 books. However, what was groundbreaking was Bale. It's basically the movie that cast him as Batman.

City of God: This is an outstanding movie. I was completely engaged in all the characters. Highly recommended.

Yes, yes it is. City of Men is out now. I haven't seen it but it's the same director.

Stop-Loss: I wasn't really expecting much, but it was reasonably well acted. Predictable, for sure. Interesting topic, and I think I'd have the same struggle if put in these soldiers shoes.

I thought the trailer sold it as a different thing. I was pretty disappointed. But I do like Ryan Philippe.
