Definitely the kind of movie that stays with you. It's a portrait of an area and an era, with similarities to modern times. Not light fare though. Some scenes were really hard to watch. Tremendous star power in this overall, and I think Hardy did a great job. I don't see how people can have a problem with his acting, frankly, because he becomes a very different person for each role. Beyond costume, hair and makeup, he changes his mannerisms, his accent and manner of speaking, and even his facial expressions, which tend to be somewhat unique for each role. He was great in the remake of Mad Max, and terrific in Warrior. I liked him very much in Venom and am looking forward to the sequels. Rave reviews of Locke, but I haven't seen it yet, alas. They looked like they cut their hair using a saucer instead of a bowl to trim around. The nude scene was pretty tasteful. Maybe she wanted to work with the other actors. A lot of star power in this one. He's the reason I chose to watch the movie. I would have liked to see more of him and less of Jack, but the movie was structured with Jack as the narrator. Also, they need to appeal to more than one demographic to have a financially successful film, so a younger "star." I don't think there was honor among beaters in these circumstances. The person was threatening Forrest and had no legitimate beef with him. I figure the attacker deserves what they get when they are the one in the wrong. I believe that, in general, Americans tend to call other English speaking people by their nationalities, as Canadian, British, Irish, Scottish, Australian. However, as a very general expression, those English speakers from other countries could be called foreigners. In addition, it's probable that an East Indian English speaker, for example, would be more likely to be called a foreigner than people from Europe or Australia who looked Caucasian. The descendant was the grandson of Jack, so the family legends would be relatively fresh. They literally would not have sold tickets for cars to get on the Arcs. The cars were for the car show in Vegas, to which Yuri did have tickets. Yuri was interested in cars and would have bought one of the types on the plane, according to one of his sons (if it hadn't been for the intervening destruction of the world). That was how he knew how to start the Bentley. It wouldn't have been 10 times the passenger capacity. They had only one Arc worth of passengers needing a ride, about 100 k, assuming everyone had made it there on time (not too likely), plus the Chinese workers, probably not as many as 100 k. At most, they would be triple capacity. However, they were able to open up for fresh air and reunite with the other 2 Arcs, so they could have shared resources at that point. View all replies >
