OMG - audio commentary by actors is HORRIBLE...

It sounds like they're all drunk, and they're always talking at the same time on top of each other... so headache-inducing.

What a disappointment. Anyone hear this???

I was a little disappointed. I really wish there was a directors commentary.

Yeah they talk all over each other. But at least they're keeping to the movie for the most part.

Somewhat better than commentaries where they say one thing not related to the movie then there's silence for 10 minutes.

You can sorta concentrate on what one person is saying and drown out the others.

Just watched the commentary, and you're right. It's very annoying. However, as a professional actor myself, I can tell you that it unfortunately reminds me of any group conversation I've ever had with a group of actors-- everyone always wants to be talking.

I think the commentary would have been cleaner with just the 2 leads (Angela & Nathan). The Doug & Todd actors talked way too loud & too much. Also a director and/or screenwriter commentary would have been preferable.

The war is not meant to be won... it is meant to be continuous.

Agreed, it should have been just Angela and Nathan. What bugged me was that I wanted to hear so much more from Nathan and he just gets talked over constantly. A separate director track would have been nice.

are you serious people. WHO THE *beep* CARES ABOUT COMMENTARY? watch the movie and try to have an idea for yourselves about things rather than knowing every single convention. Personally, I think knowing absolutely everything kills the film a bit. You need to wrap yourself up in the story, stop critiquing and experience. people loose so much from movies because all they care about is analyzing the most useless parts of a movie. chilll out.

"WHO THE *beep* CARES ABOUT COMMENTARY?"

Lots of people... hence why they're included.
