I'm not sure he ends up offering the moral challenges so much as the mental ones. But yeah I feel the same way.<br /><br /><br />Colin and Trevor:<br />This film could be really good or really bad. I don't think there is any in between. I actually thing old Viggo could pull it off. But who plays the kid?<br /><br />And I predict that if there is a single frame of the film dedicated to showing the nuclear meltdown or whatever it is, the film will suck.Jon Couttshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01728055140831842717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18173351.post-4826422650725980212009-10-02T00:45:18.074+01:002009-10-02T00:45:18.074+01:00I see you read "The Road".
