1) I paid SA Rand 80 for it (about $8)
2) Is / was it worth the money?
3) Am I in trouble for buying it?

I haven't seen this particular film, but spending money on anything with Uwe Boll's name on it is usually a bad idea.  :bouncegiggle:

I take that to mean that you haven't seen his South African made film Darfur (2009) with Kristanna Loken and David O'Hara: yowza. If that film's ending doesn't make anyone cry, they have no soul.

Nice pistol, nice watch, dunno about the film, though.....



We must just hope for the best.

Got it this morning.
Fast-forwarded through most of it.
Bleh.

Judging from the shape of the trigger guard and the overall squareness of the weapon, I;d say this boy is holding a Glock, which represents good old fashioned Austrian-German design.  But then again, Germans know a LOT about weapons  :wink:

I'm writing a review of it: it isn't as bad as I hoped and I should have watched it all before fast forwarding the DVD. The cinematography is very good too but most of the music rips off the Psycho score.  :teddyr:

Would say delightfully bad. Just put on the audio commentary and have fun. Maybe it's because Til Schweiger is something like a laughing stock for us german movie fans or because Udo Kier and Ralph Möller still have that little bit of cult following that I enjoyed it as much as I did.

He had the why-am-I-in-this-film expression on his face the whole time.  :teddyr:

No audio commentary, I'm afraid: bare bones DVD.  :thumbdown:

I also liked the way he was steering his boat, not looking where the hell he was going.  :teddyr:
