I thought it looked crappy from the trailers on TV.

You thought you wanted to see it...why?

Have you seen "End of Watch"? That's high on my list to see.

I saw and liked "End of Watch." Excellent acting by Jake G. and Michael Pena. Real life drama of cops and gang members
in the streets of Los Angeles.

I haven't heard a negative thing about it - all pluses. I'm waiting for it to be in DVD. I like to watch movies at home, with no distractions, volume set where I like it, handy refrigerator & bathroom. Best of all worlds for movie-watching.

Michael Pena is a solid actor. Had a great role in Crash.

Go see Anna Karenina and get back to me. I would only send a Domer to see that movie.

Bobby B don't worry I've already seen Anna Kabana and felt it wasn't for me. I had no idea what they were trying to accomplish in the film.Nice try. ;)

If you have a chance to see "End of Watch" Fredo, let me know what you think. Also you Private Smiles.
