"Wind Talkers" is now in the $5.50 bin at Walmart. I've not seen it yet. Off to check Rob's review to see if it is a good one to see.

Oh wait. It has Nicolas Cage in it. I tend to like his movies. So, off to read the review, but I'll probably get the movie regardless of what the review says.

I never saw Windtalkers because it was too violent. I don't see ultra-violent movies on principle.

As I recall, the critics lambasted Cage's stiff character as well as the excessive violence. They also booed the codetalkers being secondary to the white man in their own movie.
