Well, ToD was the weakest of the three narrative wise and it didn't help that the movie pushed the boundaries of what was a PG rating at the time. Because it was too violent for a PG rating yet not violent enough for an R, ToD paved the way for the PG-13 rating we have today. |

Such a guys movie. I remember when it came out some of the marketing was geared towards convincing women that they would enjoy the film because of all the buff beefcake on display. However, I remember watching it at the cinema. After about 25 mins, the girl I was dating at the time along with every other girl in there had kind of zoned out; they got accustomed to all the man flesh but just didn't engage with the rest of the movie. Meanwhile all the guys were loving the violence! Lol. |

Me neither. He's awesome. First movie I remember seeing him in was Dracula 2000. Can't remember if you are a fan of Lost, but the guy who plays Xerxes was also Paolo in the few episodes of Lost when they tried (and failed) to introduce some new characters. |
