The Life of David Gale

Ok just seen this on Dvd, and heard a little about it but not much.

I really enjoyed it, and would recomend it to anyone, really good story and what an ending, there's a big twist, i figured it out 5 mins before the end.

But if anyone has not seen this yet, and not sure when it's on r2 but you can get it on r1.

if you know theres a twist then it can be figured out at the start. Still an enjoyable film

saw sixth sense in america on holiday without any knowledge of the film(it was the only thing on at the cinema we went to). I actually thought film was poor until the twist, which was not predictable IMO. I was amazed at how many people claimed to spot the twist from the beginning.

Noing that there is a twist can spoil films as you spend your time trying to figure it out without rather than just sitting back and enjoying of the film

He probably meant after the second time of watching it.

i watched it the other night and i got the twist quite early on. its not a bad film but kate winslet really got on my t*ts - hard bitten journo who investigates child porn etc etc and yet she crys all the time!!!

It was ok, but i doubt i'd watch it again.
