Best movie I’ve seen in a long, long time.
I was prepared to be disappointed as the original has long been a favorite of mine, but while some tweaking went on in updating this story from the 1950’s version the end result is better than the original. Russell Crowe is fantastic, but I’m most impressed with Ben Foster. The guy plays the coldly intense and creepy Charlie Prince to perfection.
He’ll be an actor I’ll be keeping my eye on in the future.
I am happy for the review as I could not imagine it could compete with the original. I liked the original because it was a very well told story of two very different and real men. So, without this review I probably would not have invested my money to see the newest version.
No matter the age or state of health, for a military man it is always glorious to tilt at windmills, rescue a fair Dulcinea and be a gallant knight in armor in a glorious cause.
As I said, I really liked the original. You won’t be disappointed with this one.
When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty.

I agree Rob, The movie was excellent! Although, it was Christian Bale that got my attention, but probably not for his acting talent alone.
