Was that the thing with the bungees?

It's been many years since I saw it. In my memory it was just a generic arena scene - which struck me as implausible at the time because the audience seemed unconcerned that any one of them (including the boss man) might get killed in the course of the fight.

Next time it's on I'll check it out - perhaps I failed to give it due appreciation. But I certainly don't feel that my life has been enriched by the film.

That made no impression either. I haven't even bothered to watch the third prequel.

Yes.
