I disagree with a lot of what he says. I'm not religious but I'm not anti- either. I don't know why people can't enjoy a good bit of cinematic excitement for what it is - a good story - rather than reading all sorts of things into it. I didn't think it flagged at all - 2 hours shot by and judging by teh other people's faces when they came out, they thought teh same. Vive la difference!
