    So I just watched it for the second time and it just leaves you thinking. Was Clyde right? Did Gerrard Butler go to far? I mean it's absolutely mind blowing how terrible some of his deeds were. But it was also horrid what happened to him.

    I would love to year some thoughts on the movie and spacifically on where you stand. For the he'll of it I'll make a poll to see how many people would have detonated the bomb at the end. Very curious discuss.

    So, how did the killer of his family get away with it again? I forgot.

    If you don't think the killing was justified when would you consider it justified?

    i seen this a couple of weeks ago. hated the ending.
    wouldve been awesome if jamie fox and that other dude didnt find the bomb, and the bomb actually went off.

    I loved how he killed some of the people though. the best one was when the judge answered here phone and it just exploded, i actually lol'd.
    the guy he tortured was pretty brutal though, sawing his legs off and ****.
    the only time i felt a bit sad was when jamie fox's female freind dies in the car explosion.

    dont know if i wuldve dentonated the bom though.

    Great movie. I think many people identified with his frustration with the politics and bureaucracies in our society. That doesnt mean killing all the people was the right way to go.

    Never saw it. I always thought the trailers made it look really stupid.

    I thoroughly enjoyed it. Feel bad for Butler in that movie, but you can't go killing innocent people.
