I'm seeing a lot of this.
One reviewer put it well: this version shows the difference between being a great actor (Bridges) and a great star (Wayne).
I just saw it last night. It was great. Would have been even better if people wouldn't talk during movies.
THIS!!!! I had 2 adults and 3 kids sitting close to my wife and I and the ADULTS were worse than the kids! If you can't keep your trap shut for 2 hours, you don't need to be in the theater, you need to wait for the DVD and watch it at your house! I thought the flick was great but between Jeff Bridges mumbling his lines at some places and these idiots having a conversation about where it was filmed the entire time I'll have to watch it again just to see what I missed.
