Well worth the ticket though.


While I've intended to go see it all along I am hearing its getting some pretty outrageous reviews
Including Ebert calling it
"one of the years best films"

Would go see it tonight but my son is working and I want to take the whole family together

Yeah, you can tell they're overhyping it and praying for a good run to save this year's box office.  But what movie this year haven't they done that with?  

"one of the year's best" -- I can go along with that, if you emphasize the "one of" part.  Definately not great, but good.  Very entertaining, just not profound or earth-shattering.

LMAO!


One of our projects last year was to completely design an Elderly Unit Care Apartment Complex.

So we named it and gave it a slogan.
