I finally got to a showing that was not sold out, last Friday at a small town cinema.

I enjoyed it immensely. It did have a bunch of combat action scenes, I felt on par with Saving Private Ryan. I would need to view them again to see if one outshines the other.

Of course Gibson did a wonderful job with battle scenes in Braveheart - many raved about it. Three years later Saving Private Ryan trumped it, with a bigger budget.

Good cast. I recall seeing Theresa Palmer when she was 20, and now 10 years later she still looks 18.

For those who revel in Aussie players, much of the cast is from Australia. I've always enjoyed Griffiths, and Weaving, and Palmer.
And Garfield and Sam Worthington spent time in Surrey, England.

It took me a little bit to recognize Vaughn and place Worthington - I didn't recall that I knew they were in it, nor Teresa.

Anybody else like it?
