Not too bad for a mindless action/thriller. The script was pretty stupid and ridiculous, but it didn't take itself seriously at all. Not a great movie by any means...but could have been worse.




Religulous

Huge letdown - should have been a lot better.

For the most part, I'm prone to agree with Maher: Agnosticism makes a lot more sense. But his arguments here were sorely lacking: it was more like a playground argument than a case against religion. He just twisted peoples words, cut them off mid-sentence, and heavily edited the footage to emphasize his points.

Even though he usually seems like a fairly intelligent man, in this one he just came off as an asshole. I share the majority of his views, but his presentation really makes agnostics look bad.
