The cinema version is indeed, its an incoherent mess, but the DC is a stunningly good film, story arcs are resolved, the plot is better, the characters get more payoff.
so yeah, its better than Gladiator

The DC is the one that I watched. I turned it off halfway out of sheer boredom.The cinema version is indeed, its an incoherent mess, but the DC is a stunningly good film, story arcs are resolved, the plot is better, the characters get more payoff.

anyone have any good comedies i mightn'y have seen?
In the Loop is a genuinely laugh out loud recent comedy - spin-off of the BBC show The Thick of It (which I really must watch). One of the few recent comedies which goes above and beyond being merely amusing. Scathing political satire, but also full of the best coarse language and crushing insults you'll hear on screen
Four Lions is another fantastic recent one - you won't always be rolling around the floor laughing (although there are some very hearty chuckles to be had), but brilliant and intelligent comedic take on suicide bombers. From the guy who did Brass Eye on Channel 4, which you should totally watch if you haven't (all available on 4oD).
Always fall back on the classics too, although you've probably seen a lot of these. Office Space is great, a weird and funny workplace comedy from Mike Judge. Can't have comedy recommendations without mentioning two of funniest films ever made - This is Spinal Tap and The Big Lebowski. Both well known and again you've probably seen them, but just in case they've passed you by 0 -

Good recommendations.
Haven't seen Four Lines but remember seeing a preview for it at kick-ass. will check it out.
What about some American 80's (or not) high school / college / underdog types?0 -
