Ignition
Ignition - that was baaaaaaad. It wanted to be Tom Clancy + a Bruce Willis film, but man oh man did it miss the mark. I had to check other film reviews to make sure i wasn't the only one who thought it was a total turkey...
The plot was so overstretched and convoluted I had a hard time keeping up with the bad guys and twists/turns but the kill the president stuff thrown in, and the rocket to the moon? Eh? Trying to do ten thriller films in one on 1/100th the budget, are we?
Man, that was shit. And Bill was out of his element trying to play a physical hard man like Bruce Willis. He didn't look like a Conor either - he's looked like a Jack, like a Peter, etc, when the part called for it, but that name was really waaay irish sounding, and way wrong for him.
The guy who played the bad guys' muscle was familiar for some reason, and very freaky looking. Aha, checking the credits, his name is Peter Kent. What a really weird looking UGLY guy. I can't imagine acting next to him and keeping my lines straight, eeww. I'm sure i've seen him in Stargate, somewhere. Icky.
But, Bill was sexy, always so. And i enjoyed the taser + heroin scene, oh yes. *gasm* And it was hilarious when he shot the washing machine - i laughed.
I wish he'd stop dying his hair, though - no one can have that many wrinkles and look 50ish, but have no grey hair. He needs to be honest about how old he is, and embrace it. He'd be so much more beautiful if he did.

I used to be in theater, and I specialized in character parts, so I played old men on more than a couple occasions. And from those experiences I can say that I think I look damn good in gray. :D

Well there was grey in Bill's hair in The End of Violence, which is dated 1997. So i totally know that 10 years later, he'll have some grey in, like he did in You Kill Me. I just dont see why he's covering it up other times - be honest, be real.
