Thought it was way better than the second one. The first is clearly the best
The whole organization that the film is based upon is pretty dodgy. But anyways, I watched "Collateral" and it held up. I'm a big fan of Mark Ruffalo. And Tom Cruise isn't playing the over-the-top version of "TOM CRUISE" but a more subdued version. Jamie Fox is great as well. Probably the flim's best attribute is the "LA at night" vibe, which has some really great scenes.
Love that film. Don’t usually like Cruise but he was good.
You just described the first 2.
I did enjoy the 1st one. 2nd is the weakest of the 3 for me.
Defo give the 1st one a watch though.

Fair point. Also found this report from someone who went on one of the raids:
I Went on a Vigilante Raid to “Save” Kids Sold for Sex. What We Did Haunts Me Now.
Tim Ballard told me he was called by God. I wanted to be, too.
Looks like a case of self-mythologising (this Ballard fella). The worrying thing is there appears to be little aftercare for those kids who are 'liberated'...from the sounds of it a few get trafficked again.
I haven't seen Sound of Freedom, not sure I want to as it's a heavy subject. But no doubt the world has a serious problem with child-trafficking. Anything that makes the general public more aware is hopefully a net plus.
Watched 3 the other night .
Was OK but you gorra watch the 1st (the best) & the 2nd.
Great cast & soundtrack to the 1st , recommend it mate.
Watched Oppenheimer on IMAX this afternoon. Really good stuff. Very serious, well treated biopic. Cillian Murphy excellent, and does a lot of the dramatic work without being overly dramatic about it.
Nice to see Macon Blair in there, who’s a great underrated actor (and writer, and director).
My only criticism would be I would have liked to see some scenes play out a bit slower, as the editing is pretty quick from one scene to the next.
But a solid, incredibly well made movie, watched in a packed, sold out cinema which is great.
Oh, and Jim Caveizel. Oddball. And by the way, if I was a religious man, and was playing the son of god in a movie, and was struck by lightning twice, I’d take that as a sign that the almighty wasn’t best pleased with me.

Watched on a Cam record, via a dodgy site, on your phone. Just as Nolan intended.

The Whale...did not think it was up to much
That double pizza slice action though
Just watched the new Indiana Jones. Thought it was excellent.

It's disturbing to be honest. It's got those Schindlers List vibes going on.
