"I'm a soldier of the apocalypse."

I kept hearing that line on TV but I didn't know what it was until now.

I saw the movie tonight and it wasn't very good. Its basically just two guys drinking and smoking weed while driving around LA. There isn't that much point to the story and was a bit boring. Bale as a gangster just wasn't working for me, people were actually laughing at the slang he was using and shit.

Quite a few people said the movie was horrible and that they were getting their money back when they were leaving. That was coming from little wannabe gangsters too.


Oddly, my dad thought the movie was interesting and that it was very realistic for how it is on teh streetz.

Bale actually looks pretty tough-ass in the trailers, but as soon as he starts talking it's like, okay, white boy. Go back to being Batman.

Apparently the movie is a bit like Training Day, which I actually liked.

Wasn't this movie released last year or something somewhere? I keep seeing it as coming out in 2005 for some strange reason.

From when I saw the first trailers I always thought it was just going to be a poor version of Training Day.

Ends a run of good movies for Bale too. Apart from Reign of Fire I've liked everything he's been in, but Harsh Times not so much.

It has that Training Day vibe and they have been advertising that in the previews "From the Makers of Training Day" or something, probably some executive janitor assistant. About the only thing they have in common is that they drink and do drugs in their car a lot like in training day.


One of my favorite Bale lines from the movie:

(His mexican friend)"YO I JUST GOT A JOB AND IT PAYS LIKE 12 AN HOUR"

Bale: "DAMN, thats a lot of lettuce"

People in the audience were like LOL WTF? It wasn't meant to be a joke either.


Anyuerism, my dad doesn't have any street cred but hes said in the past he had to pull his gun on some negros looking to mess him up and take his car.

can someone torrent it, remove everything from the movie except for the part with that line in it, and then send the cut to me? :icecream:
suppose you're thinking about a plate of shrimp. suddenly somebody will say like 'plate' or 'shrimp' or 'plate of shrimp', out of the blue, no explanation.

I don't think it lazy to not want to download a whole movie just to see 5 seconds of film. Thor could have easily filled the request if he hadn't already delteed it.
