Review:
Fantastic movie!

My brother-in-law recommended this to us, and about a year later we finally purchased it. I went into the movie thinking that I wouldn't like it, but it really surprised me and it is now a big favorite of mine.

I definately recommend it. A good action movie and definately good laughs.

Willem Dafoe was incredible!! Possibly one of his best roles ever!
