Read the book which was excellent unless you're a big Obama / Biden guy.
Checking out the movie this weekend.
I always took Peter Berg to be a Hollywood liberal type so maybe he's pulled a Dennis Miller?

Tim Riggins is playing in it, it has to be good.

Looking forward to seeing it.

My boys went to see it last night, loved it. Only complained about validity of one scene, so pretty realistic to them. Big fans of the Marky-Mark.

A lot of very realistic looking action, but not a lot else. I expected more story between exchanges with the enemy. Instead it was almost non-stop fight scenes. Pretty good, but I was expecting it to be really good, and maybe I expected too much. Underwhelmed. :|
