Anyone else seen this flick?

I thought it was awesome. It's a revenge story; my favorite genre, about a man who, against all odds, avenges his wife and survives to live another day.

I love the ending, which I won't spoil for you.

It brings to mind that movie with Denziel Washington, Man on Fire, only there is no self-sacrifice.

The actor was amazing too, I forget his name. It's definitely a movie that will go in my favorites, right up there with Sin City.

The main character was played by Val Kilmer. When the movie began, I didn't like what I thought was a story about an aimless drug addict. I had enough of that in high school to need to see it on film. But once I realized what the movie was about, it got my interest. I think I may even watch it again, now that you've brought it up.

The Salton Sea is a really good movie. Vincent D'Nofrio plays perhaps the most bizaare movie villain since Dennis Hopper's Frank Booth in Blue Velvet . And the movie also presents a great depiction of the madness of the crystal meth subculture in Southern California.
