I will admit that to a degree I was also dispointed that the build-up didn't lead to a more political show-down but:<BR>
<BR>
I found the acting of the lead actor- not out of Hollywood, but South Africa- to be great and proving that not all great acting is not coming out of the Hollywood machine. <BR>
<BR>
I won't spoil the ending but I'll say that it is NOT the same as Independence Day and I dont think any mainstream American movie would allow for it to end as it did and it was thus, refreshing. <BR>
<BR>
Just offering a counter-point. <BR>

Yuk. Maybe they thought we were too dumb to notice.<BR></body>
