did anyone see this the other night (or watched it when it first came out?). the urban satire that is...

even though to me it looks like a 1970s cop show (that is not as slick as newer films :lol: ) i enjoyed this very much.

 

however it was quite weird to see Michael Douglas in such a leading role, the kind that would be stuck on the cover of Empire or Hotdog to sell loads of extra copies as these days you just think of him in cast-assemble things and on the cover of glossy celeb magazines with Catherine Zeta-Jones :lol: :lol: .

Wow must have been such a megastar in those days after Basic Instinct (or even earlier), and to think this might just a warning to TomKat :lol: :lol:

anything to avoid?

Michael Douglous has made some truely fantstic thrillers in the carear. Falling dow is an excellent film as are The Game, Perfect Murder, Fatal Attraction and Wall Street.

yes the game is being re-issued on dvd in the coming weeks. got a v. good review in the magazine. got lost in the public consciousness between Se7en and fight club. but i suppose if your David Fincher and have those two on your cv some lesser films are gonna get blotted out.
