Awesome movie with a shitty ending. Maybe not shitty just an ending not to my liking.

Re: Layer Cake
I thought it was pretty good also. The ending was fitting to life in my opinion. He should have seen that coming.

Re: Layer Cake
Very good movie that I had never heard of, sometimes I really like Netflix.
Other than Laura Croft, I haven't seen a "bad" D. Craig movie.

Re: Layer Cake
If you are on a D. Craig kick via netflix, be sure and check out "Defiance".

Go back a few millenniums and think "Greek Tragedy". Not a new Holy-weird invention.
Introduction to Greek Tragedy
Genre - Tragedy
As was noted in the discussion of the Iliad, the word "tragedy" refers primarily to tragic drama: a literary composition written to be performed by actors in which a central character called a tragic protagonist or hero suffers some serious misfortune which is not accidental and therefore meaningless, but is significant in that the misfortune is logically connected with the hero's actions. Tragedy stresses the vulnerability of human beings whose suffering is brought on by a combination of human and divine actions, but is generally undeserved with regard to its harshness. This genre, however, is not totally pessimistic in its outlook. Although many tragedies end in misery for the characters, there are also tragedies in which a satisfactory solution of the tragic situation is attained.
Add "Before the Devil Knows You're Dead" and "Brooklyn's Finest" to your queue as well if you are into this kinda thing. Interesting that Ethan Hawke is in both of them.

I love a good tragedy, or an epic struggle that ends the way of Hamlet.
Will add those thanks 9h
