I don't understand how something as agenda-less as this can be pretentious. The only thing I find pretentious are things like U2 which constantly preach, and shove their holier-than-thou opinions down on you. I see this piece as ambitiously unique. If it achieved what it was trying to, or not, it's not the artists fault for aiming high, neither is it pretension.

Terence Hill, as recently confirmed during an interview to an Italian TV talk-show, was offered the role but rejected it because he considered it "too violent". Dustin Hoffman and John Travolta declined the role for the same reason. When Al Pacino was considered for the role of John Rambo, he turned it down when his request that Rambo be more of a madman was rejected.

Al Pacino = God
