RESCUE DAWN  

Steve Zahn talks Rescue Dawn and Christian Bale

If 3:10 to Yuma has a theme at all, it is the Bible verse that the film's main villain, Ben Wade, played with charming and frightening skill by Russell Crowe. It reads "All a man's ways seem right to him, but the Lord weighs the heart."

As far as movie based games go, the goods are delivered, but there's still a lot of room for improvement. Maybe the next Batman game will be the killer app all of us Bat-fans have been dreaming about.

It's quite obvious that director Werner Herzog has a fond appreciation of Dieter Dengler, the real-life Navy pilot who was shot down during Vietnam and became a POW in Laos.

Does this movie need rescuing or does it save itself?

CHICAGO - Haunted by the non-fictional ghost he was portraying, Steve Zahn - who previously had been typecast by Hollywood as a comic reliever - lost 40 dead-serious pounds for "Rescue Dawn" to walk the same footsteps of a POW four decades earlier.
