Watched this movie the other night. I actually emjoyed most of it. As with most movies there are definately parts that can be cut out. It does have a pretty good cast and the acting is alright but the script is terrible along with the dubbing. Most people did not like the movie from the reviews I read; if you can get past the script and the dubbing it isn't too bad.
Plot is six people get letters from their dad and have to meet at a house. Once in the house, they get surrounded by police and also a killer on the inside. The movie has a few twists toward the end and as some pretty good action scenes.
If you get bored easily this isn't the movie for you. If you don't mind waiting for the good parts then give this movie a try.

The Way of War
Just got done watching this movie. Bad. The acting by Cuba Gooding Junior is well done and for the most part by other actors. For most of the movie you are in the dark about what is going on or what its about. There are alot of flashbacks and get a sense of government conspiracy but the movie is not clear about what. You do not even know the characters and who are they are what position they hold. Even at the end, it doesn't explain everything. I'm not sure I can even explain this movie to you.
Cuba plays an ex soldier looking for his box/cash. He has a fiancee that was killed for some unknown reason (I still dont understand that one). He has two comrads that were killed in a battle. There are two gentlemen in the governemnt that seem out to kill him except they have a chance to in the very beginning but dont. In the last scene he seems to be after the president or vice president. Not quite sure on that one. The movie itself is only one and a half stars..I would give it a half star. It was made in 2008 and is 1 1/2 hrs long. Not one of my better picks.

1 boneless pork loin roast (3 to 4 lbs)
1 1/2 tsp salt and 1 tsp garlic powder (instead of this I used grill mates steak rub)
1 C bbq sauce
1 C cola
10 sandwich buns (or rice and mixed veggies)
Cut roast in half; place in a 5 quart slow cooker. Sprinkle with the steak rub all over and blend it in. Cover and cook on low for 4 hours or until meat is tender.
Remove meat; skim fat from cooking juices. Shred meat with a fork and return to the slow cooker. Combine the bbq sauce and cola; pour over meat. Cover and cook on high for 1-2 hours or until sauce is thickened. Serve either on buns or with rice.
(Yield 10 servings)
