Always enjoy the first hour but struggle to concentrate all the way through...

Rating: 7/10 (7 September 2008)

No point waffling. The film has been around for a while and everyone knows it is a goodun. Just watching it again and apart from the dodgy accents it is made well and starts off getting you involved. I buy into the characters each time.
The change to an angry Gibson is justified, powerful and effective. The fight scenes are good and highly watchable. The more you watch it the more you spot the other stars in it. Just about every other actor is a highly rated one.
But it does go on a bit...a bit too long for keeping me involved. Everyone recommends this film and so do I. But be patient with it...
