Seconded.

Yeah, this movie was just great. It was fill with non-stop comedy lines while running with action scenes. It was truly one of a kind.

Quoted for truth. :)

That one quote made what would otherwise be a decent film great.

I loved how when roberts got to the top of that cliff the two of them sat down and talked before they fought. That was great.

It is indeed a great movie.

Has anyone here read I, Q?

Grand Nagus Zek makes an appearance in that novel and Peter David and John de Lancie worked in that Battle of Wits scene with appropriate modifications. :D
