Thanks reviewer for mentioning the dead dog. I don't know how the dog died
in this film, but I now avoid any film in which an animal gets killed or maimed
just to build suspense. "Look at that. He strangled a cat. He must be evil."
No, I am not an animal rights zealot. But there is a trend in Hollywood of killing
animals. While this happens notably in thrillers, it seems many directors of
comedies seem to think that injured of maimed animals are hilarious. I don't
believe in censorship, so I won't stay stop it. But I won't pay my money to support
that kind of unnecessary ugliness.
when it was called "Jacob's Ladder."
Go rent "Jacob's Ladder." It's an amazing, devestating movie.
Jesus Christ, Andrew. Did your dog die this week or something? These movies can't possibly both be this bad.
