what most fascinates me here be the different taste people have while i simply can not believe it when people praise this film . it must be a joke . it have to be . this movie have nothing good in it except the wwii setting and which i hope would be exploit more . the character be shallow and acted idiotic and emotional outburst just come out of clear blue sky and end in a few cheering word like it will be ok. it be like watch a cheap soap opera . acting be terrible ( apart from ed harris and who and btw . do not come across a a character who would hang a little boy . why do they have to put that there and wasn not there any other way of get people interested in the outcome of the duel . why doesn not hollywood let u take our own side instead of push u to a situation where there be no longer any option . ) . jude law and who i use to think a a good actor and land on his butt in this one . he soooo british and that it kind of hard to accept him a a shepherd from the urals . all in all and if you like this movie then a ) youre hot for either one of the lead actor and can not think clearly b ) have a limited capability of understanding quality or c ) you must be joke and which be probably the case .
