I'm embarassed to have this flick in my dvd collection...
saw it in the stores with good reviews allover it (on a closer look, by magazines I've never heard of...) So I bought it...But was I disapointed!!

Whats so great/good about it??

It's a terrible story, the acting, it all feels so silly, here is this old-brit-guy playing Mr Tough guy?

Aaaa...whatever u do, DON'T BUY/RENT/WASTE YOUR TIME ON THIS MOVIE

Saw IMDB's recomendations from Things to do in Denver when your dead - to check THIS movie out!!! Things to do in Denver...on the other hand is a real "lost diamond" C IT! (sorry 4 my bad spelling)

This old brit guy was general zod!

Some things are wasted on some people, even when they try and dumb the film down some people just dont get it. Are you offended its some brit guy beating the *beep* out of a yank?

You tell im I'm coming

Wow, you mean the reviews on the DVD cover were positive and not negative? That's insane!

Also Things to Do in Denver When You're Dead is a turd in a long line of Tarantino rip-offs that flooded the market in the mid-90s, so the fact you liked that so much and hated The Limey, coupled with your buying a movie you haven't seen based on positive blurbs on the DVD cover, more or less says it all regarding your taste in movies and intellect.

I for one really liked this film.

This movie felt like amateur hour, the acting was weak from all involved, the filmmaking felt lazy and cheap (there's Soderbergh with his dumb yellow/green filters again), and the plot was the worst kind of shaggy dog story.

Made me realize how much better Erin Brokovich is.

I think it was a crappy movie too but what is wrong with an old brit being a tough guy? There are plenty of tough brits, even old ones.

PS Just an afterthought reflection on the OP’s cognition: the topic headline, JEZ...What a BAD movie! Jez is what I ejaculate. It’s not the same as Jeez. Jez is a really good thing, a really, really fun thing. I love sharing it with my beautiful women friends.
