who has seen this so far? I enjoyed it, though the writing was horrid. just aweful. not a bad script per se, but without goinh into too much detail, the plot was all over the place, no focus. ed harris' character fell very flat at the end.
I think in the first movie john voight's character alluded to the mother beind dead... but she is in this movie... umm continuity issues much?

i didn't really understand ed harris' motives. i kept thinking that with his last name it was going to be that he was a descendent of john wilkes booth but they never went there.

it was a pretty fun movie... but the writing issues where so aparent its hard to ignore. basically what bothered me most was the fact that they made ed harris' character so morally ambiguous. that could work in theory, but it was pulled off so akwardly that it really didnt work. its like they where trying to create a more complex character but it was just so flat that there was no dimension to it.
nick cage seemed to have moments where he really acted out in an impulsive kinda way. like he really didnt give a fuck about the movie for a second and just acted fucking crazy. I did enjoy that in a way. they tried it and failed miserably in spider man 3.
