    Anybody? I haven't seen anything since Bourne Identity. Road to Perdition looks pretty good. Anything else worth 7 bucks?

    K19 has gotten some pretty good reviews. Harrison Ford and Liam Neeson are in it.

    Road to Perdition is definitely worth it.

    I'm about to go see K-19.

    What did you think of K-19? Personally, I didn't like it very much, which seemed impossible with it being a submarine movie and all. How can you possibly mess up a submarine movie??? :confused:

    Oh, and Road to Perdition was top-notch!

    If you liked Tremors, you'll like Eight Legged Freaks.

    Road to Perdition looks pretty good, and I've heard nothing but positive things.

    As for K-19, is it just me, or does Harrison Ford seem REALLY out of place with a Russian accent. I think even if he nailed the accent right on, it would be weird, just because he's Harrison Ford. Pure American white bread, Han Solo, Jack Ryan.

    Just doesn't fly with me.

    "About A Boy" with Hugh Grant was sooooo freakin' hilarious! Definitely worth seeing in the theatres!

    Why were you disappointed with it? It pretty much stuck to the comic book origin.

    Nah it was Gwen Stacy falling to her death by the hands of the Green Goblin, not MJ. And Stacy died too...I feel like such a nerd knowing this.....

    it was so hyped up by the media and commercials... but i felt let down... the cgi wasn't all that great and the story line was so dull that i was squirming in my seat just waiting for it to be over so i could go home and do something else! unfortunately i didn't drive my car to the theater, so i couldn't up and leave!

    wow...and i thought i was the only person who didn't like spiderman that much...

    i didn't like road to perdition *too* much....newman was good...kid actor was ok...hanks was too stoic...story felt kinda empty at the end...i really can't explain it. Have to see it to feel it. 6/10

    Frankly I hated Road to Perdition. It seemed like they sat down and said: "what can we do to win an Oscar? Do we have this? No. Add it." It was completely contived.

    Lilo & Stitch was fantastic. Disney's best purely animated picture since Lion King.
