So worth seeing. I rather liked it a good deal. I already look forward to when it's out on DVD so I can watch for all the little details of Marvel canon I missed.

I agree with Kenny. And with Heartless. This movie had some stuff that made it so worth watching, but had some flaws that kinda sucked.

all in all, worth seeing, but unless you're a hardcore fan, I'd wait for the cheap theaters.

I saw the same as pretty much everyone else it seems, aka Iron Man 2.

It was fun, stuff blew up, can't really expect more in a superhero movie.

Really liked it. I saw explosions, more explosions, and it made me look forward to the avengers even more, so i am satisfied.

Both the '95 and '03 versions of The Hunted.

I maintain that the former is better.

he '03 one took itself too seriously, while simultaneously having the most absurd plot and utterly unbelievable tracking, knife making and combat, and etc.

The '95 one was a B movie that knew it was a B movie, complete with ninjas.

Overall, B and B- respectively.

Feel good story. it was... pretty good, but I saw it with the gf so judgment on the movie may be clouded :P

Iron Man 2

I got everything I wanted out of this. It's a superhero movie, lots of things go boom, and Robert Downey, Jr.

One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest

Yeaaaaaaah. Better than I expected, but I can pretty much boil it down to being a decent zombie movie with good relationship dynamics (but fairly mediocre presentation) and a theologically unsound premise. Oh. Lots of profanity, too. Basically, I enjoyed it, but I won't be hurrying to recommend it. :P

Iron Man 2.

My viewing was heavily influenced by the fact that I watched it with 11 other friends, all of whom are varying degrees of awesome. We were so awesome that we compensated for any awesome lacking in the movie. Also, couple of them snuck in much awesome munchies and nibbles. Only sad thing was that since we went to the midnight showing, they shut off the air conditioning at the beginning of the movie... meh.

Oh, yeah, the movie was good too. :lol:

Robin Hood - I'll admit, I wasn't that enthused for this movie. Another 'historical' epic directed by Ridley Scott starring Russell Crow. Hooray.

I don't deny the talents of either, and I tried not to be biased, but the whole affair seemed quite same old same old. Which isn't too bad if it's done properly but parts of the film are quite uneven and spastic while switching from character to character that it never really allows you to get a grip on anything.

That said, battle sequences are, of course, well done, and there's a considerable amount of acting talent to be found in the cast, despite some lackluster delivery by Crowe.

I'm probably not going to stop anybody who wanted to see this movie, and I know that other people enjoyed it, but it's not the sort of thing that I would watch more than once. C

Not so sure about that. The credits to pretty much any of Pixar's films are epic. XD
