This movie is one of those rare ones that puts me in a trance after watching the movie. I really enjoyed watching this movie. On a scale from 1-100, I would rate the movie a 92. Excellent, wonderful movie.

I really enjoyed it too, much more than I expected. I thought the lead (whoever he is) made an impressive transformation, although the last scene was a bit "Fabiesque". All the late middle age women in the theater were swooning.

I actually preferred the multi-episode version with Gerard Depardeau back a few years ago. It was shown on the Bravo channel and lasted for ~4 nights for 2-3 hours a night.

The current movie was "ok".

That's great news. I've read the book and really liked it. Just haven't had a chance with work to see any movies. I'll need to make room for this one.

I liked it, I have been waiting for months to see.

They have been advertising it in the movies for a while now. Since last July.

Great movie. Finally found some time and saw it this weekend. Very well done. I specially liked the comic relief character guy. It's been years (~15 years) since I read the book so it was nice piecing together the plot elements as they developed. I would definitely recommend this movie.
