I was just wondering who here has seen ryan's other work and what your thoughts are on those movies.... i've seen The Believer, Murder By Numbers and the Slaughter Rule....and i have to say....all are well done... Murder by Numbers was probably my least favorite of those three....then again, im not the biggest Sandra Bullock fan....the ending was different and i didnt expect it....and i didnt like Ryan's character....It was well acted, but man, i hated him... The Believer was amazing...the acting, the way things were dealt with....I will admit to tearing up at the end of this movie...so much emotion...I honestly say if you havent seen this movie, you should...it's not lighthearted or anything like that, but just a powerful, well acted movie... The Slaughter Rule is my favorite of the three, very good story...cant really say much without talking plot...i just feel it was a very believable story and again, very well acted.... I'm also awaiting the United States of Leland...and Stay looks like it will be a good movie.... Any thoughts from anyone else?

I've seen Murder by Numbers and The Believer. I have to say I think I liked Murder By Numbers better than The Believer, only b/c anything anti-semetic is disturbing to me b/c my best friend is Jewish (I'm Catholic) and I have learned a lot about her religion and respect it a lot, so seeing hate like that is very hard to watch, although the film was very well written and acted. I didn't like Ryan's character in Murder By Numbers (who did? lol) but I liked the whole mystery aspect of the film and I don't mind Sandra Bullock, I like her in some films. I guess it was just easier to watch (albeit the killing scenes lol) BTW Chrissy- I really love your avatar and signature pic! Awesome! ;D

ThoseSummerNights... Thanks....i've been playing around with a bunch of avy/siggy stuff...i'm not a wiz...but i can make simple ones... hehe and i agree that the majority of The believer was hard to watch....but it was so believable and well acted....not just by Ryan, but by everyone involved.... trueloverawks....aside from The United States of Leland, which i think hits DVD 9/7/04 (someone correct me if im wrong....) All of Ryan's other movies are on DVD....I've found all of them at Blockbuster.... hope that helps...

i've read some bad reviews and i've read some good reviews. personally, i'm biased towards this because ryan is in it. but still, i hope this movie will be good because i can't wait to get it

I've seen Notebook, Slaughter Rule, The Believer and Remember the Titans.
Notebook- obviously my favorite! Why can't all guys be like Noah? The world would be a better place. LOL
Slaughter Rule-surprised me, not ever hearing of that movie. I assumed from the title it was some kind of horror but I was wrong. Very good movie! Ryan looks so young!
The Believer-I heard before renting it that it was a very powerful movie. I hated seeing him play a darker character but he played the part SO well. Just shows he can play a variety of characters.
Remember the Titans-My family rented it the week it came out on dvd. I had no idea he was in the movie. I saw his name in the opening credits and knew it sounded familiar put couldn't quite figure it out. Then we ended up buying the movie and it became my brother's all-time favorite he'd watch it at least 2x a day everyday. I got tired of it really fast. But now I have a new reason to watch the movie.
Murder by Numbers-I haven't seen and from what I hear don't want to waste my time seeing.
I know The Notebook launched his career farther than he or anyone ever thought it would. No doubt he will make his mark!

omg, when i heard the slaughter rule, i thought it was a horror movie, too! i was like, "what the hell is ryan doing in a horror movie?" nonetheless, it was still pretty good and he did an excellent job in it
