If you are looking for something totally different from the ordinary car explosions and shootouts, this is the movie for you. Different, brilliant and extraordinary. The scene at the fair ride is carefully planned, it shows you through symbols everything related to the accident giving you the answer of the actor`s state of mind. just that at this time you dont realize it. Bale`s transformation is unbelievable, but that is the least relevant aspect of the film. i would say is the combination of the shadows, lack of light, music, and even the simple acting of the rest of the cast is enough to keep eveybody wandering till the end of the film. to

Very dark movie. Bale is brilliant, NOT because of the weight loss but because of his great acting.

The only thing which kept me going was the beautiful Dodge Ram Power Wagon. And, fortunately, they didn`t hurt it.

I thought this movie was great... It has a great story line... But dont expect much if your looking for scares.... More of a drama... Excellent acting...
