just came from watching it; I liked it!

to nsx_bob: my opinion is that the island wasn't doing any secret tests; and it left me thinking if in fact he got better or stayed the same (mentally), I say he got better and finally accepted who he was and did, but wanted no more memories so the trans-orbital lobotomy was his only solution, become a Ghost!

and this really freaked me out: yesterday i was looking up Dachau and transorbital lobotomy online... before i even knew about topics on the movie!

Saw it yesterday with my GF and some friends. I thought it was going to be a scary movie--thriller of sorts. I went prepared to hide

I'm glad I didn't pay full price (saw matinee). It wasn't BAD but it definitely wasn't great. Reminds me of Inside Man and Deja Vu where they're both a mind #### until the end. Except this one was worse.

The ending sucked, and it dragged on WAY too long. If I had a watch on, I would have been constantly checking my watch.

I give it a 6/10

hmm, interesting so many of you guys didn't like it at all.

just to be different, I loved it! not so much because of all the over dramatisation, but more because it's the first movie I've seen in ages that had me thinking the whole way through. haven't experienced that since American beauty, the usual suspects and se7en.

maybe it's just me though! haha

I just saw this movie with my wife. We both enjoyed it. It might become one of my favorites of 2010.

Also saw this with my GF as i did Book Of Eli..
I thought this was alot better than the previous movie.

Had me thinking the entire movie.. not much action but it was an interesting flick overall.

8/10!

This movie's twist was stupid. What a letdown.
