Watch it anyway, it's a good film.

And the sex scene between Angelina Jolie and whatshisname...she's so gorgeous...*drools*

I haven't seen Gothika, but Taking Lives was really good, I saw it at the movies, and bought it on DVD when it came out as well, really good film.

in taking lives angelina does alot of stupid shit i think that people wouldnt really do. example at the begining of the film she wants to study the case abit more so she is lieing down in a grave... come on thats just stupid. and when she is examinign the other case , she goes into a secret room where the murderer slept and lies down on his bed, wtf ... whos does that. and when that guy grabs her from under the bed, wtf was he doign there? how did he know anjelina is even gonna go to that room and lie down on the bed or does he sleep under a bed?

and at the end of the film when we think is she pregnant and then when the killer finally finds her, he stabs her in the stomach. how did angelina know that he woul dcome to her that day , she was away in that house for months , does that mean she wore that fake pregnant suit everyday hoping that the killer would come and stag her???? any anyway , what if he had a gun instead of a knife, the pregnant suit thing wouldnt do shit.

Keifer Sutherland is barely in Taking Lives. Like he's put high up in the credits coz he's "such a star" and all that, but he's probably in it for 5mins, sort of like he is in "Phone Booth".

Plus, Angelina Jolie is in it!!! Doesn't that mean anything?!

so if a movie has been out for more than a year, it has passed it's 'expiry date' and not worth watching? riiiiiight. ill watch it anyway since djmattyd says it's good.

Have you seen "Girl, Interupted"? I thought she was brilliant in that film. There's one other movie which I think she's good in, it's older than "Girl, Interupted", but I can't remember the name of it. And she is good in "Taking Lives".

Well, that's only my opinion, and I obviously am biased. *continues drooling*
