It was better than I thought it would be, but not something you want to go looking for a bunch of action or ANY happy parts.

Someone told me that Liam Neison is thinking about becoming a Muslim so I couldn't help but think about that through the whole movie.

    What on earth would ever make anyone WANT to become a muslim? Except maybe a loaded gun pointed at your head. Sorry to hear Liam is just another Ho-wood idiot.

    And what is "The Grey" about, Kasey? I'm too lazy to google it. [:)]

    The grey was about this Alaska oil outfit that Liam is the "sniper" that shoots wolves that attack the workers. A plane goes down leaving a group "vulnerable".....things get hairy from there. I don't want to give away too much.

    I'm not usually one to go to these types of movies, but it was pretty good.....a little depressing, but still good.

    He's too intelligent to buy into any superstitious nonsense. I don't believe it for a minute. It may just be some media hype.

    Thanks for the short review Kasey. I plan to see it this week. Looks like it could be a good one. Liam becoming a muslim, I doubt that has been thru rumor control yet.

    LOS ANGELES -- Hollywood star Liam Neeson is considering giving up his Roman Catholic beliefs and becoming a Muslim.

    The actor, 59, admitted that Islamic prayer "got into his spirit" while filming in Istanbul.

    He told The Sun, "The call to prayer happens five times a day, and for the first week, it drives you crazy, and then it just gets into your spirit, and it's the most beautiful, beautiful thing."

    He added, "There are 4,000 mosques in the city. Some are just stunning, and it really makes me think about becoming a Muslim."

    Neeson was raised in Northern Ireland as a devout Roman Catholic and was named after the local priest.

    But the star -- whose wife, Natasha Richardson, died aged 45 in a skiing accident in 2009 -- has spoken about challenges to his faith.

    He said, "I was reared a Catholic, but I think every day we ask ourselves, not consciously, what are we doing on this planet? What's it all about? I'm constantly reading books on God or the absence of God and atheism."

    His latest movie, "The Grey," about an oil-drilling team that crashes in freezing Alaska, is released in the US and the UK on Friday.

    Maybe he needs to quit reading books about "the absense of God and atheism." Hey, why not just join a whacko religion that thinks God is angry at us all the time. What a Ho-wood loser.

    Thanks for the run-down on the movie, Kasey. I think I did see an ad for it on TV. It was kinda intense. The Mrs. and I are more the "Muppets Treasure Island" type.
