It's better that way. There are already enough lurid "journalists" out there who invent lies about others every day. Be a good Nix and stay in hiding forever. Yes, please hide and stay there.

Never has and never will. Would have liked to read a real review aboout the movie too, but I guess after this "report" I can do without that from you. Seems like you are just interested in writing gossip and shallow-brained rubbish. Boring! When it comes to Russell Crowe size doesn’t matter babe. Never has and never will.

I have high anticipation and expectation. But those reviews come from die-hard Crowe fans, so maybe (just maybe) they'll be considered as biased. It'll be more interesting to hear more comments from general moviegoers or even non-Crowe fans. Besides Russell Crowe, Helen Mirren, Rachel McAdams, and Jason Bateman sure sound convincing in my ears. And surprise, surprise! Even Ben Affleck got the thumbs up from those reviewers. Quite unexpected, huh? Kevin McDonalds sure sounds convincing as well since his success with The Last King of Scotland. Nix, I didn't mean to sound ungrateful for the pics you posted. But just a liiiittle bit honest opinion on this movie alone would be much appreciated instead of bashing one of its lead actors. Here are the links I’ve found re: the early reviews from the SOP test screening.

That said, us Russell Crowe fans would have really liked to hear something about the movie and not Russell's height. True fans like myself could care less if he's shorter than Ben Affleck or anyone else! We just enjoy his excellent acting and always outstanding performances. Nix,

You are suppose to be reporting on the movie and the work the stars put into it, and whether or not the movie is worthy of seeing. which i know it is a must see movie after all Russell Crowe is in it. as for the height of Russell , Ben could be standing on a step above Russell, but as Russell's fans know he is and i quote him.(11+1/2and a bit.)

Fine, I get that. But what sort of thing you would expect by commenting on his height? Ben Affleck is taller than Russell Crowe. Big deal! You wanna be a professional, then comment on the movie instead. What do you think about it? Do you like the idea of this remake version or not (comparing to the original BBC series)? What do you think about the quality of the casts and the storyline? I know a preview/test screening of this movie has occured a couple days ago, I read that somewhere. Did you attend? Oh btw, did the film company who produced this movie know you post these images?! Nix, you don’t like Russell Crowe. Fine, I get that.

Russell is just under 6 feet tall. So naturally, he's going to appear shorter. Well, Ben Afflex IS 6 feet, 4 inches tall. Russell is just under 6 feet tall.
