Dude I shot straight up outta my seat and was pissed.That movie actually kinda made me hate Iranians a bit more cause of what an asswipe the persian guy was.
If you had that reaction to the Persian guy, you should have 'shot straight up outta" your seat for EVERY character. That's the point of the movie. It reinforces your prejudices then slaps some sense into you.

No, I felt moved by every character except for him.I felt the mexican guy and his daughter.I loved the scene at the end with the house cleaner and the bitchy white chick.I liked ludacris learning about life.But the persian guy was just a little bitch.He shot a freaking kid.Should I like him cause he felt bad in the end.No.The whole movie he was unwilling to listen to anyone.

But it was his fault.He didnt want to listen to the mexican dude.Cause he has a victim mentality.He thinks everyone is against him just cause he is Persian.He and ludacris were examples of this.Ludacris learned and maybe the persian guy did as well.

as much as I dislike ludacris...i really think he nailed his role. He did a good job playing the victim all the time...and really played into the emotions at the end when he let the mexicans go

Yeah with the cops changing roles.One learned to love again and the other to dump young black boys bodies out of the car.

Well of course.But earlier in the film Matt Damon character told him that one day he would understand being out on the street.He was right.

It was clearly not intentional, IMO. The clerk asked her if she knew what she was doing when she bought them, and she chose them randomly. She didn't say blanks, she said the red box. She also later went into the draw and looked at the box to discover that they were blanks.
Her father's character in some ways is the least likeable, if only because we do not see much of his character after his transformation, unlike others. But I personally think that ryan phillippe's (SP?) character was even more detestable, personally, because he committed the most vile act, covered it up, and also was the most fundamentally naive character.

Sure but considering the circumstances, I think it was possible to understand how he could have shot the black kid. I was a little confused as to what that particular point of that scene was. I realize his brother was supposed to die but I expected it to happen differently.

the fact the guy was pulling out a jesus like the cop had....and the cop assumed it was a gun because he was black...so he shot him

I disagree. She clearly didn't want her dad to have a gun, and definitely didn't want him to hurt anyone, so she chose the one type of bullets that proved to be no harm. She did not choose them randomly, the clerk asked if she knew what they were, which she clearly did.
Later when her dad told her what happened, she wasn't shocked at all at the result, because she knew the reason behind the little girl not being killed..

Did she buy blanks on purpose? Or was that just a good coincidence? There is evidence supporting either claim...just wanted to know what you thought.
