It was, without a doubt, one of my favorite 'new' movies of all time.
The original Omega Man is one of my all-time top five, or so.
I enjoyed the nods to the Omega Man, as well as the credit gibven to the writers of the Omega Man script.
Did I mention that I loved the film? We saw it opening night, and the audience was mostly kids. When it was over, maybe half the audeince gave it a standing ovation. The kid behind me said it was the best film he ever saw.
My main problem? .223 on deer? Come on, guns are free, at his point in time. Where was the socom II? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
My Wife dug it, a lot.
I must admit, I was not looking forward to seeing Will. Arnold had been 'cast' when they first started the script, maybe 15 years ago. I had been waiting for the film all this time. When he was attached to the project, I just couldnt see him filling Heston's shoes. To give him credit, he pulled it off.
My rating? 6 out of 5.
