I wasn't saying I disliked that as compared to the German version as i have not been able to find that one anywhere. I'm saying that I didn't like breaking the 4th wall in general. The first time they did it, I didn't notice my first time watching it (I like to watch movies twice, when possible for analysis purposes) cause it was just a smile at the camera. After that I was just annoyed by how it brought me completely out this state of uncomfortable and disturbed that I was in.

SPOILERS:

I didn't get upset by anything in this movie up until when Paul started calling Peter overweight, and disgusting. That just put me on edge, because his character was so polite but so very cruel, even to his friend. After that I was not a happy camper, at all..

Very hard-hitting movie from the Eastwood stable. Sean Penn and Tim Robbins are perfectly cast into their roles, but the real scene stealer is Thomas Guiry. What an amazing performance the man has delivered! Add to it flawless cinematography and an amazing script, complimented by a director who infuses sheer dynamite into his skill.

A must watch for anyone who is a fan of the Eastwood school of filmmaking, AND it is also a must watch for anyone who likes serious, gritty and mind-blowing cinema. Recommended by me to all my HDC mates.

You need to get High Plains Drifter. I know you're into the Leone westerns, so you should LOVE that that one.

Heh,thanks.I'll check that out.:D

Few Dollars More is probably the weakest by comparison IMO, but it's still head-and-shoulders above most westerns out there.

Yep, you need to see High Plains Drifter...it's pretty much Eastwood's homage to his work with Leone, and it's easily one of the coolest westerns that I've ever seen. His character is essentially just "the Man with No Name" again, only more badass than ever.

what exactly is the point of remaking your own film, shot for shot??
