i started watching it, might have been a good movie if i didnt have to read it. i despise movies i have to read the subtitles to know whats going on.
Well, you turned off one of the best movies made in the last ten years. Your loss.

Me, I'm with Schlippittz; I'll watch it in the original language every time, just for the feel. Seven Samurai, Yojimbo, Rashamon, and of course Das Boot. I have a copy of Elektra (1962), with Irene Papas, based on the ancient play by Eurypides. Irene Papas had a wonderful, sultry, deep voice even as a teen. The voice actress who dubbed her into English at the time sounded like a schoolgirl. Not even close.
