However, the film pleasantly surprised me, not only was there an abundance of all things that make violence lovers happy, the plot is certainly deeper than i initially gave it credit for. Sure aspects are a littlle predictable, but there are several genuine surprises.
There is even witty dialogue and scripting :D Also, if you like Alicia Keys, she looks damn fiiiine in this film ;)
Though the ending can make you feel a little "oh, well, thats a little, hmm, bleh" (you'll see what i mean), its a good action film, won't win any oscars, but it damn will entertain you.

It's featured in the game Battlefield 2, and Rainbow Six 3 too (I think) ... it's the 50. Cal Sniper Rifle, in real life used as an anti-vehicle gun, which is why in the film it blasts huge chunks out of the building.
I know too much about guns, and I learnt it all from Computer Games and Films. Who says they're a bad influence?? :P
Here's the only picture (I could find) of the Remote Controlled Gatling Cannon from the film The Jackal. It's an excellent bit of kit :) .... [URL]http://www.tvnorge.no/bilder/03/56/75/45/4_5501_00833.JPGNone.medium.JPG[/URL]
And it has a rapid fire mode for when he wants to kill the First Lady. Its in the back of that truck he has.
Am i gonna have to find a pic for you? :P
