War Horse
New movie coming out at Christmas. Don't know if it is going to be good or bad, but it is a Spielberg history movie, with John Williams doing the music. Can't really turn out a bad one based on that.

Act of Valor... Act of Valor... Scratches head... GI Jane II? No, no, real SEALS... So Charley Sheen was in this one too, right?
Why Rangers? Cause SEALs need heroes too.

I wouldn't see it again if I found a broken into Redbox machine and it was free.Dangit wrote:So, I'm curious. Took my younger sons to see Act of Valor awhile back, I thought it was well done. And thought it was well done. Found it a bit strange no one mentioned it here? And your thoughts on it if you saw it?
Let's just say that acting is not one of their strong suits.

I watched 'Machine Gun Preacher' the other night with my wife, and really enjoyed it. That guy is my kind of evangelist!
