i hate it when people in the movie theater talk back to the screen . it one of the main reason why i stick to dvd or videos . i saw the clearing on dvd but if i have see it in the movie i would have have to stand up and scream he not dead yet and you moron . the clearing be another in a long list of horrible movie that feature mr. redford . legal eagle and havana and indecent proposal and up close and personal and sneaker and last castle and and spy game . if robert redford tell me to invest in something i would go the other way . but the bad possible thing you can do to an audience be this . say youre be kidnap and your kidnapper have a gun . he hold it on you for most of the movie . you turn the table on him and start strangle him . whatever you do keep strangle him until he dead . don not just strangle him for ten second . stay with it . ten minute at least . but bob stop too soon and walk away and forgets about mr. kidnapper until . he get up and find the gun and hold it on our hero again . at this point i want mr. kidnapper to shoot robert redford . more than a few time . and i want to shoot him as well .
