    Contrary to what I have said about Kevin Spacey I have just seen one of the finest movies of the last few years.

    This film embodies everything I love about movies; suspense, intellect and complexity. Take a friend, you'll need it....

    It looked to me like it would be good. I like confirmation.

    They filmed one scene pretty close to us in a restaurant in Oakhill.

    Roger Ebert gives this movie a rare "zero stars".

    It looks like an excellent film to me. I want movies where I can't figure out whats gonna happen in the end...this looks like one of those movies.

    I talked to 2 harvard PhD's and they said it sucked so I doubt it was very "intellectual"

    If I talked to 2 Harvard PhD's I doubt it that movies would come up. OK I'll say it, you're lying...

    I was looking forward to this movie as well. I don't normally take complete stock in what film reviewers have to say, but in this case they are so unanimously against this movie that I don't think I will want to see it. Not only have the reviews I've read been unfavorable, they are very strongly against it. If anyone else has seen it and thinks it is good, please post here because I wouldn't mind be convinced otherwise.

    I just hope we get to see Spacey rubbing one down in the shower again.

    ha, I forgot about that. I guess I prefer to remember Spacey's daughter showing showing her rack. But that's just me. ;)
