Well, I liked it. I mean, it's Disney and suitable for a 10 yr old so it's not earth shattering. Kurt Russell's acting is awful but I really enjoyed the movie.

It has a mix between a coming of age superhero film and a John Hughes movie from the 80s. The plot is actually kinda cool.

I was glad to watch something that wasn't too tense for a change. I think you'd enjoy it.

That's okay. I'm not sure there are 10 movies this year worth mentioning.

Mr. & Mrs. Smith, huh? Is that because of the Brad Pitt factor (or the Angelina Jolie factor for that matter)?

I watched it the other night. It was okay but almost farcical. It was probably meant to be that way though.

My wife enjoyed watching Angelina though (as always). It's better than the Italian subtitled dramas she usually wants me to watch.

And a special honorable mention to House of Wax, for Paris Hilton's gruesome death scene.

I like both actors...as actors. I am certainly not a "OMG Brad Pitt is to die for" kind of person.

I liked the quirkiness of the movie, like when Jane starts shooting at her husband and yells something along the lines of "You doing okaythere, baby?" Meanwhile she is trying to kill him. LMAO. :D

Mostly just the obvious ones for me--SWIII, Batman Begins, HPIV.... I've seen several of the others mentioned, but they didn't blow me away.

Syriana looks interesting and I hope to get to that.

You know I feel about that. heh heh The Dark One walks amongst us.

Dakota did great on that film. In my opinion she was the only reason to watch it. She's one of the best actors out there today.

Yeah, poor, poor Tom - I wonder is there a term in psychiatry that describes the peculiar situation whereby movie actors believe themselves to be the characters they play??
