My husband and I (and the kids too actually) just watched this last night and we ALL really enjoyed it....I thought it was a really good movie, Wahlberg as usual performed well and got partially n@ked which is never a bad thing LOL....Here is the Netflix write up of the movie: "An expert marksman (Mark Wahlberg) is coaxed out of seclusion by colleagues who need his help in preventing a plot to kill the president. But he soon realizes he's been set up when he's framed for the assassination attempt. Can he elude the law long enough to bring the real culprits to justice? Danny Glover and Michael Peña (World Trade Center) co-star in this political thriller based on a novel by Stephen Hunter" It was a really great flick IMO the ONLY think that annoyed me was Glovers slur on his "S"s I'd never noticed it before in other movies and its really pronounced in this movie so I found it distracting..especially since I dont know if its a real life thing or part of his character (though I dont see why)....Has anyone else seen it? what did you think of it?

I think you know what I'm going to say. Looks like I'll be getting other one on your recommendation. I enjoyed Deja Vu and Blood & Chocolate.

I asked my hubby if we were going to rent it but he said no he didn't want to see it. I was a bit surprised 'cause usually Wahlberg makes pretty great movies. And it's not one I'd actually rent for myself to watch. But I'll let him know your opinion on it and if he hears enough good things about it he usually changes his mind.
