ok, i take back what i said about not being able to sit through very many two hour movies. this one runs right about 2hr20min, and for the last hour and a half i was glued to the seat, biting my fingernails.

this movie is fantastic. it is the story of desperate men in desperate times, who take desperate measures in search of a little financial stability. in english, that means they are hired by an oil company to transport a truckload of nitroglycerin across rough terrain to an oil field. the storyline takes a bit to develop, but it is well worth it.

best movie, hands down. ever.
