What about Matchstick Men? That movie was pretty craptacular.
No it wasn't. Great performances from everyone involved. I think it's the last good Nic Cage role, he's been doing shit since then.
I can't remember if he did The Weatherman before or after Matchstick, but it was after, then that was his lsat good role
imdb says after. so weatherman was good?
also, lord of war was after matchstick men as well. I'm not sure his role required much effort, but he didn't fuck it up, and i really enjoyed that movie.

I liked it, and it had Michael Caine, who makes everything better
According to Amazon traveling in that book causes the people traveling to age months and everything else to age centuries. How the hell does that work for a story? So where would they possibly travel and how could they be useful? They can travel to some distant planet to kill aliens that are now hundreds of years more advanced, I just don't see that point. If the enemy was a problem before they will be even a bigger problem now with their advanced future weapons.
if you're a fan of Haldeman and Heinlein (if you're not a fan of Heinlein, your life is devoid of meaning), check out John Scalzi. His Old Man's War universe is a fine homage to the masters.
Bangkok Dangerous (2008) .... Joe
National Treasure: Book of Secrets (2007) .... Ben Gates
Next (2007) .... Cris Johnson
Grindhouse (2007) .... Fu Manchu (segment "Werewolf Women of the SS")
Ghost Rider (2007) .... Johnny Blaze / Ghost Rider
The Wicker Man (2006) .... Edward Malus
World Trade Center (2006) .... John McLoughlin
The Ant Bully (2006) (voice) .... Zoc
That's everything after the weatherman.
My god, that man has an addiction to high-class hookers and blow or something. I dunno about bangkok dangerous. I'll just assume it was bad.

You should read the book, because they do address this exact question.
IIRC, the aliens are quite some distance from where they are fighting as well, so relativity is working against them too. But that's part of the fight, you might be going up against a ship that's serveral decades ahead of your own, or you might run into a ship design that's a lot older then yours.
Really though, the fighting is not integral to the story. It's more about how the protaganist tries to reintigrate into a society that becomes increasingly alien to him as he signs on for further tours with the armed forces.
Completely unrelated, but there's an article in EMPIRE about the Watchmen movie, and they say who Paul Greengrass was going to cast in the film before the funding got taken away
Nite Owl - Joaquin Phoenix
Ozymandias - Jude Law
Silk Spectre - Hilary Swank
Dr. Manhatten - Denzel Washington

That's a pretty horrifying image of the future.
Also, I may check this out, but I'll probably wait until after seeing the movie before touching the book.
Reading the source material only really raises my expectations for the film and I'd rather not set myself up for potential disappointment.
i edited it
way to go
goatmon do you mind editing
also, read the book now man. the movie doesn't even have a scriptwriter yet, and you really shouldn't keep yourself from awesome sci fi.

You gotta cut me a little slack. I reacted pretty quick, but this isn't exactly a hive-mind.
also, lord of war was after matchstick men as well. I'm not sure his role required much effort, but he didn't fuck it up, and i really enjoyed that movie.

and yes Lord of War was pretty good too
and my favorite, the one i read
Do you want that? Do you want to kill the smart assing?
i love how old books had a gazillion editions and different artists' take on the themes
this one sucks:
. . . Apparently he dropped out of directing. Well, then to Hell with him.

Good lord that is a fucking horrible list of movies. Maybe even the absolute worst movies to have come out in the last two years in theatres.
Well.
