The shaky cam didn't bother me in the least. This movie was pure adrenaline from the beginning to end, I didn't get bored while watching it and couldn't take my eyes off of the screen for a minute. Jason's acting was superb (he did Briggs very well), loved the yank accent! And our man showed up in the movie more than I was expecting.
(and although I'm not sure if I'm going to see it again in the theater, I will probably pick it up on DVD)

Glad you finally got to see GZ and that you liked it!

Glad you liked it, Angel; hope it was worth the wait. Wasn't Jason gorgeous? (is that a stupid question?)

I kept saying to myself in the theater, "Where's Jason? I wanna see Jason FIRST THING!"

Jajajaja, me too, Marilaine! I was really looking forward to his first appearance in the movie, where he jumps out of a helicopter and beats the *** out of Matt Damon. Loved that scene!

Great to hear you enjoyed GZ, Angel. See, would we steer you wrong with a Jason movie?

Definitely one for the DVD collection.
Hooroo,

Loved Jason in this movie! I really couldn't follow the movie because I was trying to spot Jason! I, too, hated the shakey camera! It was too much and made me almosty sick!
Thankfully, my friend is a Matt Damon fan and wanted to see the movie, so I got to see it twice! I enjoyed it and was able to follow the story. Of course, I pointed out Jason to my friend.
Jason played such a good bastard and died so well!
Will definitely get the DVD!

Finally....got to see GZ. JI was fabulous. He was really thin for this movie, those fatigues always add weight. Matt Damon just looked pudgy, but JI looked sleek and fabulous. I played the bit where he pops Miller in the face over and over again. It was so funny when he patted each of Millers butt cheeks. I really enjoyed the movie. The script was predictable. JI totally made it for me.
