Saw it today at 4, What a great film.

Special Effects were amazing, and the movie had me holding my breath for a few sequences.

Of course knowing the ending, after the book, and the original movie. It still was awesome.

Definatley see it.
There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

good to hear.

the local "movie critic" bellybutton in the paper said it sucked, and gave it 2 stars.
I don't know what to put here yet.

How badly did Tom Crazy suck it up?

1- Like Cartman's Mom
2- Like a Hoover on steroids
3- Like a Dust Buster

For the record, I though Tom Cruise sucked before I thought he was crazy.  Now I think he sucks AND he's crazy.

Tom Cruise, while not one of my favorite Actors still played a great role.

He was playing the Divorced Father, How do you take care of Children Role. Cruise was discovering how to keep his family alive during the end of the world. And he did a good job.

Of course, The movie was rated PG13, which kind of turned me off from the beginning. It definatley freaked my Girlfriend out, and Children in the Audience began crying. LOL. So beware if you have children.

Its a great suspense Flick, along the lines of Signs. I liked Signs, especially for the suspense. But this was far more Graphic and way more intense.

I laughed real hard when they were escaping New Jersey, Followed by Martians. Dakota Fanning, says, "Daddy is it the Terrorists?!?"

It left me with a feeling of like, What would happen if you were in that situation? If I were in that movie, I would have been Tim Robbins. :D

GO See it, Its good.

I believe johnney depp is the one thats crazy and sucks. from the remake of charley and the chocolate facroty, i see depp as a wacko and a crazy person, kinda like wacko jacko. I think depp has a secret life in the chocolate factory as a homosexual pervert that has a sick fetish with the oompa loompas.  I think it will bomb bigtime.  Gene Wilder is the original wonka in the chocolate facroty, never will see anyone else as willy wonka.

Agreed but I always thought Gene Wilder sucked too.  
Never saw him in a movie I thought he was good enough to be in.

and before ti gets mentioned
Young Frankenstein was a great movie. But not because of Wilder.

Honestly. I HATED willy wonka when I was a kid.

And when I heard they were doing a remake I rolled my eyes and silently thanked God we have so many TVs and DVD players in the house LOL

Actually I didnt like alot of the kiddie movies that were out or popular when I was a kid. Didnt even really like The Wizard of Oz cept for a couple of scenes and I remember my favorite "funny" movie when I was a kid being "Its a Mad Mad Mad Mad World"
Or "Those Amazing Young Men in Their Flying Machines"

I remember my mother putting on Heidi thinking I might enjoy it and I bout thought she was trying to torture me.  Not long into it I remember moaning and groaning that there HAD to be something else on and even suggesting to check to see if the news was on yet. Much to my fathers delight. He didnt want to see it either. Course she accused him of cohersing me which was totally untrue.
