The reviewer talked about a woman s/he knew or talked to or something, whose daughter was brutally murdered and the cretins who did it were caught. The woman pleaded for mercy for the killer(s), because what good would more killing do? The tie-in for the reviewer was that *this* woman was "the brave one."<BR/><BR/>Which, I gotta say, I am a regular church-goer and I know my Bible pretty well. But I don't know if I could forgive something like that.Law Fairyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02590678306595147920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9044859131970603127.post-24163437751867051412007-09-22T11:48:00.000-07:002007-09-22T11:48:00.000-07:00Yeah, I was taught to shoot by a guy who became a ...Yeah, I was taught to shoot by a guy who became a cop... he was very particular about how I held the gun with TWO HANDS, etc... to this day I hold my pellet gun the same way, it just doesn't feel right otherwise.Jadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13959637910926242468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9044859131970603127.post-28396750046134825312007-09-21T23:01:00.000-07:002007-09-21T23:01:00.000-07:00jade: even cops use both hands with a 9mm.mercy: s...jade: even cops use both hands with a 9mm.<BR/><BR/>mercy: seen it. havent reviewed here,though. actually, its in a draft that i'm not happy with publishing.<BR/>yes, its a good film.<BR/><BR/>kr: she's promoting it as some intellectual art film. but it just doent pass muster. lots of artistic qualities. bad product.<BR/>death wish was 10x better at its mission. and death wish was poor film making.Ginohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09606046924332159076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9044859131970603127.post-24257775083740991812007-09-21T20:50:00.000-07:002007-09-21T20:50:00.000-07:00pity.

After that I began to scoff at the movies showing anyone holding a pistol with one hand and shooting. The 9 was enough of a kick for me, I shot a 44 once. Nearly knocked me on my ass.Jadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13959637910926242468noreply@blogger.com
