Just finished watching it last night... took a few days... couldn't get into it.
It was an ok movie... some weird imagery. For some reason it reminded me of Jacob's Ladder. It was an ok movie, but the ending was weak. I couldn't tell if the people that kept him alive were part of Manchurian Global or a rival corporation and that this was the movie's way of saing that the world is actually just some sort of chess board for two warring corporations or something to that effect.
I got the impression, by all the hints of how Manchurian Global had it's hands in nearly everything that they were supposed to be like Free Masons...
Either way Meryl Streep's character reminded me of Hillary Clinton... and the son was representative of Hillary's toolbag husband who fucked up her plans by being a complete asshat... so now the sequel will be Hillary having to get into the White House on her own merit... or something.
Oh yeah... the movie. It was ok. Never saw the original and after seeing this one I really don't have any more motiviation to see it. I wouldn't go out of my way to see it again and I'm glad I waited til it came out on DVD... otherwise I would have had to pay for three tickets to see the whole thing through since it put me and my wife to sleep each time we watched it.
