Default The Life of David Gale

Just finished watching this movie. It actually hits very close to home (college station), since most of the story takes place in Huntsville. If you haven't seen it, please do. Just a great, suspenseful movie. Kevin Spacey does not pick bad roles these days.

i saw it, and it was ok...but a little too predictable and not as good as i was expecting it to be. i had heard great things about it, and the movie just didn't live up to them. but i would still go ahead and see it. it's a fairly good movie.

i heard it was kind of preachy in a "anti-death penalty" kind of way. Is that the case? If so, no thanks...I'll go rent True Grit, instead.

Preview looked pretty good. I will probably rent it before too long.[img]i/expressions/clock.gif[/img]

Twa? Predictable? Are you psychic? I didn't see that endind coming until, MAYBE, 3-4 minutes before they actually revealed the truth.

I don't think it's "preachy," per se. I'm pretty adamant that capital punishment is a necessity, but that opinion of mine wasn't challenged once by the movie.
