^It got mixed reviews at its London premiere, not that I ever pay much attention to what movie critics have to say. I'm still looking forward to it coming out on BluRay

Dean, if I had your setup I'd never go to the movies. Just think of the fun I would miss paying $6 for .50 worth of popcorn and getting my shoe stuck to the floor.

I finished the book. The ending is a bit too conveniently wrapped up and a bit of a cliche.

My son and I are going to see it tomorrow. Should be good for some father and son bonding.

It was BY FAR the WORST movie I have seen in a VERY long time. WAY too long, WAY too slow, and WAY too graphic!! The last 30 minutes were decent.

My younger son has seen it twice with different friends. It's supposed to be a rainy weekend so maybe I can get both the boys to go see it with me. I know the reviews from Idaho are terrible but I never listen to the critics.

There are many who do like it, maybe it was just me and Mrs. GM3.

You obviously haven't seen Rock and Rolla or some of the other gems we've rented recently. Talk about hours of my life I'll never get back.............
