Eh, cover art is alright. But this was such a great movie that I'll definitely be getting it. Best of 2007 right here.

i love werner herzog...i'm dissapointed in myself for not getting out to the theatre to catch it. i'll probably pick it up.
I have been waiting for this one but it never came to a theater around me.
Great film. fantastic performance from Bale. I just thought it could have ended ten minutes sooner.
I kind of like the cover. It would have been classier without the second quote though.
But this is an extraordinary film. For me about the sixth best this year- next to, 1.)Zodiac 2.)Grindhouse 3.)Eastern Promises 4.)The Lookout and 5.)The Bourne Ultimatum!

Christian Bale always delivers a great performance. But sometimes his performance is way better then the material that he is working with {Harsh Times}. I hope that isn't the case here.
Never saw it, it wasnt playing at a theatre nearby. I will blind buy this.
It is a VERY good film.
Cant wait to buy this one!
Its right there with Zodiac as my favorite films of the year so far

Excellent film. Apparently it's not historically "accurate," but that had no effect on my enjoyment of it. I can't get enough of Christian Bale. I think he is one of the most talented actors today.
I agree with YlowBstard, no need for two quotes. Otherwise, a decent cover.

Great art.
I haven't been able to catch it in theaters, so I'll probably give this a rent.

I find it hard to beleive that Steve Zahn is tolerable in this one, as he never is. But the again, he´s got a good counter weight in that other fella´.
Wanted to see this, but it never got to a theater around here.
I love Christian Bale. Hopefully I can go see 3:10 to Yuma this weekend...

this movie was so incredible i'd buy a 6 disc dvd set complete with Dieter Dengler and Dwayne action figures (now with realistic s**tting-pants-for-2079-nights-in-a-row-due-to-dysentery-and-a-poor-diet-of-worms-and-moldy-rice action!!!)
the cover's nice. i would be much happier if no dvd cover ever used a quote again.

I think that it pretty accurate. Some things were changed, but I believe for the most part that it was accurate.

Zahn actually is VERY good in this one. He turns in an Oscar worthy performance. He isn't the annoying sidekick you want to be shot like he is in every other movie he has been in. He's actually a really good actor.

Cover art is too direct-to-dvd looking but the film was very inspiring and well made. With Bale delivering probably his best performance to date.
Bales reason to lose weight between batman movies so he can impress us again with how versatile he is....clever girl.

3:10 to Yuma has a very solid Bale performance... i suppose it had to be a better performance talent than Rescue Dawn.

This movie kicks ass! I will wait for the unrated Blu-Ray DVD.
Never saw this but I am a self-admitted Bale freak and will rent the hell out of this!
The artwork has been removed by request from Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment, but expect an updated look soon.
oh those b*****ds.
It could also be having some touch ups done, so maybe that wasn't the final artwork...?
those MOTHERF**KERS!
Awesome, I never got to see this in theaters (or should I say "theater" since it was so limited). Bale's in my top 3 fave actors.
I like the art a lot!

The artwork, from what I remember, was pretty bad. I'm glad they realized their mistake. I'm hoping for it to be reworked to the poster with Bale reaching out to the helicopter in the sky. Much better IMO.
Amazing film and an amazing score by Klaus Badelt. Christian Bale did a fantastic job as well. One of a kind movie that packs an emotional punch.
Great film. Instead of adding to all of the Bale worship, I'll add in another big thumbs-up for Steve Zahn's performance. He has officially graduated to the big leagues now....
I like Christian Bale but this looks unappealing to me. If anyone has a problem or disagrees, email me at hman24@cox.net.
