The race for quality has no finish line- so technically, it's more like a death march.

I emailed that pic to some people here at work with the XXX subject line. That should have sent off some porn filtering alarms.

Thumbs down What a hack job

After I talked a bit about being so impressed recently by The Grapes of Wrath as I just read (listened to the "book on tape" of it), I decided to watch the movie.

It's an old "classic" movie done around the 1940s. Back when (I thought) they tried to stay closer to the true stories (books). -- NOT!

What a hack job. It was horrible. They ruined the story. Lost all emotion, deleted major scenes and characters totally, rearranged the story line, reworded an important part of Ma's important speech at the end, and most importantly gave a different ending. The book ending was much more melo-dramatic than the movie ending.

I hated it!

XXX is good action. Don't expect plot or realism, but it's one of the best action movies I've seen in a while.
