Started it but it was too hard to understand without subs, so I can't wait to get my hands on them because this looks like a british Gran Torino.

haha dude it's in ENGLISH, wtf?

i can transcribe it for you if you want but this reminds me of the ridiculous times when watching american news programs and they add subs any time somone isn't speaking in an american accent. i know you're not american, you must have a french accent, so the irony is that they would need subs to understand YOUR english!

anyway you're spot on with the gran torino comment. except maybe with not so much unintentional comedy.

Haha my writen english > my understanding of spoken english > my spoken english > my understanding of any scottish/english/australian movie-accent

english people on TV are really easy to understand but in the movies, not so much.

Are you crazy that would take hours. You're madder than Aaron Johnson. They'll pop up soon enough somewhere. Thanks though.

I can't believe you offered to transcribe this for me P, that was pretty insane/nice.

Anyway finaly watched my dvd of this and loved it. Great opening scene too. Obviously the movie agrees with the vigilante which is very rare in these types of deals. They will always make it ambiguous and make this shit moral dillema ''isn't he as bad as the people he hunts?'' ...hint: someone who kills child rapists is not as bad as them.

So if you wished Gran Torino was a bit more violent and right-wingy check it out. BTW Emily Mortimer is awful and has a terrible character in this, be warned.
