Man On Fire

**CCSDUDE** · July 26th, 2004, 06:58 AM

Who else has seen it? What did ya think?

It's on my top ten list...awsome movie. I'm only posting now because I just finished getting a decent DVDR copy....all I had was a crappy cam job and a nuked screener....garbage.

Favorite quotes...

Lisa: What are you going to do?
Creasy: What I do best: I'm gonna kill 'em. Anyone who was involved, anyone who profited from it, anyone who opens their eyes at me.

Pita: You have a girlfriend?
Creasy: What kind of question is that? You're supposed to be studying history.
Pita: It *is* history: Creasy history.
Creasy: No, that's ancient history!

I thought it was pretty damn good. I especially liked the interrogation scene in the car at the salvage yard. Who knew a cigarette lighter was such a multi-tool.

yeah a very good movie i thought! another good revenge movie is The Punisher (2004).

I liked the movie and you will enjoy it, in the ending of the movie you will be astonished, well maybe depending on how you react to such things.

My favorite quote was when the guy said to crease, What they did will be between them and God.. HE said, "We'll its up for me to arrange the meeting."

Now did Crease die because of the gunshot wound he got from the kidnappers brother? Or did he die from the bleeding that never stopped through-out the movie? Or did he die when he let the kidnappers have him?

That's the only part that confused me. But yes, excellent movie.

Pretty much unanimous. Very good movie.

**shawners** · July 26th, 2004, 03:32 PM

it let you believe that he died for what ever reason you want to believe. I would say he died from bleeding to death or internal bleeding. He died on the way over, they was going to torture his ass.. He should of had a bomb under his shirt or something... A pipe bomb or some thing with nails in it and shoot everywhere.

He died from a combination of both, IMO. Steady internal bleeding post-bodyguard duty coupled with gunshot wounds == dead Denzel.

I liked the movie quite a bit. What really did it for me was the editing, strange as that sounds. Some of the crazy camera angles really accentuated the scenes, as well as the awesome in-scene subtitle work. Amazing!

Strapping a bomb to himself would have resulted in the whole crew of bad cops taking it out on the only 2 people left in Mexico connected to him that they know of... Pita and her mother. Now why would he sacrifice himself for Pita only to get them killed by trying to be a macho dick? lol

I thought the ending was perfect... I would have actually been pissed if they ended it Hollywood style...I hate that kinda crap...so unrealistic.

Dakota Fanning makes most of todays 'stars' such as the few regularly quoted by Sk8erboi....look like crap. She's damn talented....and her an Washington seemed to have great chemistry.

"The View" (122mb) and The Wayne Brady show (114mb) interviews are pretty good, she plays piano at the end of Brady's.....very nice.

I also enjoyed the movie. It had a really good plot line somewhat typical. But Dezel playing crease fit so well and made the movie so much better!. One of the best in my book along with some other denzel washington movies.
