I am not even going to give this a vote, as it does not even qualify to be judged by any scale. The film is pure propaganda, and is like the Nazis's are replaced with ignorant caucasions and the Jew's with innocent muslims.
I ask you: -Why do I- as a Muslim, raised and born in the west, fully integrated with the culture of my new homecountry- now have to be afraid going out of my home? Is this not the TRUE meaning of Terror?
-Why every time someone speaks of Islam, automatically the terrorism subject is approached? Are terrorists really muslims, or just fundamentally disturbed people, with an understanding that is all to mixed up- just happen to have grown up in a Muslim state?
This move, documentary or what you want to call it, reaches out to those of us who are weak. Those people who have not yet reached the understanding that is needed to take a stand. I am afraid that that is the majority of the people in the world. I pledge you to do not choose your stand from a propaganda film like this, rather go out to a "normal" Muslim, equal to the "normal" Christian, jew, buddhist, and ask him/her about his/her's belief and religion. You will see that our religion is not much different from yours.
The writings in the Qouran are over 1000 years old!! No one believes them 100%! It's like believing that the world was created in 6 days, and hell was created because of Adam eating an apple.
Wake up people, before it's all to late...

I just saw this film at a preview. I have to say I normally don't like romantic comedies, so I didn't have any big expectations for this.
The film is about Rodrick who receives an e-mail with all the names of girls he have had sex with, and those he will have sex with within a year. The problem is, he at that time was meant to get married in not so long, but "the list" doesn't end with his wife-2-be's name. Actually: there are 72 more to come!
I won't say the movie is free of clishè, but compared to what were used to with these kind of films- it certainly is a good breath of fresh air. The plot is funny, the characters are interesting, the actors did a good job, and well the movie was good as well. Also Winona Ryder is as beautiful as ever! Watch it, but with reasonable expectations.
Enjoy:-)

When I went in to see this film it was with mixed feelings. I love good movies surrounding organized crime, like classics: The Godfather, Scarface. But the last really good one I've seen was 12 years ago with Casino, that time with Robert De Niro. So because of this I did not want to get my hopes up for this one. I mean Viggo Mortensen as an Russian mob? I couldn't see that for me, but now- I soooo definitely can! The story is about a crime family in London. When most movies of this kind concentrates about the drug side of the mafia, this one does not. It's rather about trafficking and the animal side of some people out there. I don't want to say more as I don't want to ruin the experience.
The most pleasant surprise for me was Viggo Mortensen, man did he convince me with his character! He was outstanding in this movie, and deserves all the praise he can get! Namoi Watts is good, but that is also how far I will go there. It's also some scenes in the movie that just blows you away, specially one fighting scene that is so unusual and looks real.
It has it's flaws, and I'm not gonna stand here and say it's as good as Godfather or Scarface (for me taste), but it's definitely the best mafia film (Departed set aside) since Casino.
This movie will make you think. And it is one of those movies that you'll want to see again and again! I rate it 9/10, recommended.
