    I've seen it twice already and want to see it again this week. So entertaining.

    If only it didn't cost every time I had to see it, then I'd see it like 20 times :( But they deserve my money

    Haven't had a chance to see this yet, probably will go this weekend.
    Read some reviews, mostly positive.
    Mary Winstead's hair reminds me of Eternal Sunshine.

    I am interested in seeing this (though the comic didn't do anything for me). Man, this bombed pretty hard it seems.

    Michael Cera continues to play the role of Michael Cera pretty well. I would argue in this film, he plays it as well as ever.

    This movie was great, everyone who is thinking about going to see it, should. The story was great, the special effects were awesome, and the acting was well done. (Ramona looks hotter in the movie than she does in real life, maybe its just the hair that does it)

    Anyways this was one of the best movies I have seen in a while, I'm probably gonna go see it again tomorrow.

    This movie looked incredibly stupid, no way I would waste money on it

    It was actually pretty amusing. I didn't pay money for it, however.

    Yeah, I don't think you'd enjoy it in a theater if that's your mindset already. Like others have said, you need an acquired taste to enjoy it. It might surprise you though if you decide to ever catch it on tv.

    Honestly, I hate Michael Cera, the guy can play one character, and that character generally pisses me off.

    Is this better than Kick-Ass?

    Really liked the movie. Was really trippy but very entertaining. Did anybody notice Roxy was Ann from Arrested Development? Seeing both on screen is making me really want a Arrested Development movie.

    After we got out of watching this movie on Saturday nite, I told my wife this movie probably going to do horrid box office wise. Reason is its got a certain demo its shooting for, not the type of film that's going to be for general consumption.

    Personally I enjoyed it a lot, Wright really just went all out with the visuals and really committed, story and acting are all secondary to the spectacle. I wouldn't mind seeing it again while it's still playing.

    When people sneak in and don't buy a ticket, then nothing gets added to the gross proceeds. Perhaps if you bought your ticket, then it would be number 4 (unless it was The Expendables you snuck into without paying - which is the same as stealing).

    LOL at 10 mil at the box office.

    Looks like emo/hipster doesn't appeal to the masses. Weird.

    Michael Cera is a homo... I only liked him in Superbad.
