(spoiler warning)
Did anyone else cry when Colonel Faris died near the end? I'm a guy and I ain't ashamed to admit that I did cry, I know other people did as well.
For me, the last 10 mins of this movie are very emotional, it's what separates this movie from being just another action flick, I thought it was awesome.
I don't think i cried but i completly and totally agree. I was thinking the exact same thing. The last 10 mins really seperated this from others. Glad someone else feels the same way.
shareIt was so powerful i thought as you finally see the 2 sides interract one final time and the music at the end is amazing as is the entire Soundtrack if you don't already have it.
sharei cried because its bad ass movie
shareI didn't cry, but was very upset and sad. It was a very poignant scene.
shareYes, I did too. Very powerful ending and overall a terrific film.

i was very touched whe, jamie fox spoke to faris's son
shareThe ending was devised as one of many poignantly 'zero-sum' conclusions that were fashionable when this film was made (see 'The Departed'). Faris' fate is deliberately tragic, given that he is portrayed as the worthiest of all his countrymen. Agent Fleury must be breathing a sigh of relief, though. As he is even darker-skinned than the Saudis (whose bullet-ridden corpses are common sights throughout the film) he must have known he was at considerable risk himself.
shareYeah, he was a badass. I haven't seen the movie in a while, but I think there was a scene where he showed how disgusted he was over the terrorists actions as it made his whole people look bad. But I do remember when he was talking to Jamie Foxx's character and pretty much said "f--k bringing these guys in, let's just blow them away."
shareCarDriver ...nice to know you ... i CRIED at the end when Colonel Faris got killed and im proud to say it... The ending scene with Jamie Foxx and Fariss Son was very Touchy too...
