The       story labored mightily to involve every single Brody in the action, or put       them in peril, etc. Stretched suspension of disbelief to the breaking       point. It made me think of        Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and the Infinite Improbability Drive; was       like someone was running the I.I.D. at various points in the film.              And there were enough plot holes to drive a bus through.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
