Gone Baby Gone !!!!!! The word of mouth is excellent. Can't wait. 

Breaking News: Tyler Perry has driven off a cliff on a Mexican highway. No, only joking, if only. 

October looks like crap. I'm only really looking forward to "Dan in Real Life" and "Lars and The Real Girl" Love Steve Carell. and Ryan Gosling  

October is actually alright November sucks  

Hopefully Dane Cook's fans will forgive him for pretty much every movie he's made so far.  

I thought I was the only one getting weary of Christopher Walken.  

He's a great actor, sometimes. But didn't he die like three years ago.  

The only thing worse than recent Christopher Walken is people trying to do Christopher Walken Impersonations. 

I really do want to see We Own the Night, although I think it would have done better had it been titled The Departed2, but it looks good on its own none the less.  

...[T]he movie was the most intricate house of cards you could imagine, but in the last 5 minutes it got kicked, smashed, and blown over in every way possible. But, as my friend said on the way out - how else could it have ended?  

Despite my disappointment, it is very rare that a movie comes so close to grasping perfection, and for that alone it deserves all the acclaim it got.  

I have rarely seen a movie that well done. Everything the acting especially Mark Whalberg who was robbed... .Anways The film was great and tuan the films doesnt get old it actually gets better with each viewing.  

I tihnk that may be why I am not a Scorcese fan (But I love Sam Peckinpaugh- go figure).  

Often his protagonists are rough, raw hard to love people that I can necver entirely care about.  

I will never question his talent or abilty- he knows how to tell a story better than most of them. But I have been able to wrap myself into his stories. 

I guess I simple this way, but I love a movie where the boy gets the girl, the girl, the good guys where white hats, and the antogonsts get what he deserves in some devious way. I don't always like a film like that, but I am more apt to watch and even rewatch it. 

...[A]s always Marky Mark was there to round out and fill in what was lacking. its what he does. pretty much every role he has is understated because he isn't the actual lead, and when he is the lead, he works in such a way that shine a spotlight on those acting around him, while he just flows naturally into the scene.  

Nico, I can see why you liked Planet of the Apes. I really liked it up until the last scene. I have never watched a movie that I liked turn me off so quickly. If it would have stopped after the shuttle launched into space. I think I really would have liked it.  

Could somebody explain to me what about The Perfect Storm is so note worthy? The effects are impressive, the cast's interaction was solid, but the story never really me completely and the end really pissed me off. I felt like 'what was the point of this movie'? Someone please educate me. I need learnin' on the subject.  

...Wahlberg seems to hacve a better idea of his range and talents than Affleck.  

I ...am curious to see Brazilian Job (is it just me, or is the title kinda pornish?).  

...[T]he bigest question mark will be the plot- why are they back at it again?  

Tim Roth, Daniel Day-Lewis, Gary Sinise, David Morse and Tom Hanks, in that regard.  

Also, please don't badmouth my Ben Affleck. He's gotten some tough criticism, but I believe he's a very versatile and entertaining not to mention talented actor. Please don't bring up Gigli unless you've seen it. And Bounce wasn't TERRIBLE. Hope floats...okay. I'll give you that one. And I'm sorry I got defensive. I apologize considering that's not exactly what you were saying. Although I disagree with you about Mark Wahlberg...I think he's a good actor, but I don't think he's more comfortable than Ben Affleck.(Shakespeare in Love?) 

I wanted the apes to kill Wahlberg already and everyone else just like I was praying for the tripods to kill Tom Cruise and his whiny kids.  

Makes me wish that Spielberg would direct all action movies...  

Woah, talk about disposable income. 

No I have to agree, the action scenes in War of the Worlds were amazingly directed, all the technical aspects including the sound effects and especially the visual effects, and the cinematography, simply amazing. I was pretty much on the edge of my seat once the first tripod popped out of the ground.  

I also think the film took itself a little too seriously. I could care less about Tom Cruise's ill relationship with his son. And the fact that I hate Tom Cruise as a person, so, yeah, maybe that had a lot to do with me hating the film. All hail Lord Xenu!  

I liked Tom in Minority Report well simply because that had a terrific script, when it all comes down to it, the script for War of the Worlds is very lacking.  

I mean, it's not really a film where I'd like to go "Hey, let's watch War of the Worlds tonight so we can be thrilled."  

P.S. For that new War of the Worlds steelbook DVD coming out, if there is a bonus feature of Tom making fun of Lord Xenu or Elrond Hubbard, then my opinions on War of the Worlds are automatically reversed.  

...[T]he initial invasion of the tripods? Holy crap, that had to have been one of the coldest, most intense movie-going experiences in my life. It wasn't like ID4 where it felt like a blockbuster/cartoon. Those tripods were VICIOUS. It was great to see the Cruise's character as an everyday guy who had no chance whatsoever of saving the day. The 360-degree camera that whizzed in and out of the car when his family was fleeing the city was a great moment of fear and panic. So was the scene the rowdy crowd tried to steal Cruise's car. That's a side of humanity you rarely see on-screen, that we can be selfish, paranoid people when it comes to survival. And how ballsy was Spielberg by not going up over that hill to show the destructo-feast of copters vs. tripods? He kept it completely true to the POV of the film, that we would only see what Cruise's character saw. Of course, the ending (like so many of Stevie's) was out of left field, but at least it was true to the book and kept with the idea that human beings aren't as in control of the world as we think. Anyway, that's just my two cents. Sorry to digress from the October movies...
