I just watched this yesterday and have to say it wasn't bad at all. Just a fun action movie that didn't take itself seriously. Definitely worth a viewing.

Not even in the top 12 according to movies.yahoo.com. Ouch. The distributor really blew it on this one. They delay it so it can find a better release slot and they decide on the middle of the blockbuster movie season and with absolutely no advertising? Insanity, I tell ya.

Comparing DOA, a small, inexpensive film that had really no marketing to FF2, a movie where you can't avoid the marketing anywhere you go, seems really unfair. I'm sure they both sucked on equal terms.

Jessica Alba is hotter than all the DOA girls combined.

Erm, this is on cable TV/DVD in Australia already, which is almost the last place on the planet to get anything.

Everyone stateside has probably already seen it too.
