I saw this a couple years ago, and it was the movie that made me fall in love with the brilliance of Christian Bale, who is now my favorite actor. It absolutely blew me away with the fight scenes, probably the best of any kind I've seen to date, and definately way better than any it's financially superior counterpart, The Matrix had to offer. That would be the ONLY way in which the Matrix would be superior, In budget (since everyone insists on comparing them due to their mutual stylishness and their relatively close release dates. This movie just can't seem to get out of The Matrix's shadow for some people). A bunch of money still seems like it can't beat some good old fashion craetivity and hard work. I really need to own this movie.
On a side note....does anybody else get like REALLY weirded out when they hear Christian Bale speaking in his natural, british accent? I don't think I've ever seen a movie where he wasn't using an american one.
