Enjoyed it thoroughly. I noticed the costume designer is the same from Matrix. The robot AMEE kicked it up a notch. Not too much of fictional mumbo jumbo or glorious screenplay, perhaps that is why people did not like it. Or some over dramatic glorious moment. I saw enough drama and suspense in the movie but nothing gripping. Good science fiction.....all the efforts aside, I did notice the lack of interaction between actors, don't know why. Kilmer was goofy at times.

This movie should be more popular than it is. Good acting by Kilmer, especially at the last part where he becomes more humble and gives up his watch. His change in mindset throughout to see the real world is what makes this movie worth it. The over use of rifles seemed a bit odd but nothing crazy. Seems realistic and if someone was looking for something more dramatic and fictional then well, this ain't it.

Will Smith's one man show. But his emotions are very convincing as a response to the accurate description of a post apocalyptic world.

I really liked the cinematography here. Especially the last 2 minutes felt like seeing a dream. Indeed the actors do have a look of awe plastered across their faces, especially Gary Sinise. It is a work of fiction and an enjoyable movie nonetheless.

I cannot get over Chase Meridian calling "batman" a "winged rodent". The tone of this batman movie is different; it's funny and cartoonish at times. Brings back memories for me and I enjoyed it, never hated it. Val Kilmer brought heaviness to the character, Chris O' Donnel brought lightness to that. Jim Carrey at times really over did the campy, circus like jokes. But he has some impressive acting moments in the movie. Nicole Kidman is beautiful and charismatic. However, Tommy Lee Jones was insufferable for me and annoying. His Harvey Dent/Two-face is unacceptable. Which is why at times The Riddler takes over him. Pleasant surprise to find U2 at the ending. I really do not understand the hate the movie gets. No comparison between this and the Chris Nolan trilogy.

I really liked the sarcastic nature of the Constantine character and his guts in going for the less than noble route to redemption. The characters Gabriel and Satan are fabulously portrayed by Tilda Swinton and Peter Stormare and their back and forth dialogue with Constantine is very enjoyable. One thinks they have the upper hand but circumstances shift all the time. Angels and demons and exorcism is nothing new, however the dark undertone portrayed in this movie gives a sense of foreboding. A suspense even. Keanu Reeves does a great job playing cynical, jaded, bitter erm person? Being? I am not a comic fan so I enjoyed the story on it's own with no expectations.

Great first movie from Katherine Bigelow. She's really hands on and the work done is very enjoyable and camera work seems like you are following the actors and part of the story. Patrick Swayze is awesome as Bodhi(yeah Gautam Buddha was bank robbing surfer living on the edge). He's free spirited nature and joy is genuine. This was the first big action for Keanu Reeves and he worked hard from surfing, to fight training, to studying quarterbacks and the effort shows. His chemistry with Patrick Swayze is what draws you in. Young Reeves is very sexy in this film and the 3 funny lines delivered by him in this movie simply adds to his quirkiness. The dialogue has also become legendary. This movie is about thrill seekers, chasers and takes you on a ride. Very entertaining. Did I mention the great soundtrack with 90's hard rock? Great song from Ratt! Anthony Kiedis from Red Hot Chili Peppers in the cast!

The dark undertone throughout the movie was completely unnecessary to me. I would have preferred the original color. It is superman what can I say. The story is VERY emotional this time, maybe a little too much. Enjoyed Henry's portrayal. Though I might add Superman comes across as weak at times as compared to Amy Adam's Lois Lane. I suppose it has been going on for a time and this is the rise of Superman so he is allowed to be vulnerable. General Zod is very vocal. Russel Crowe is great and his segments were thrilling and fun to watch. The action is too much in this movie, drags on and on. Same with the destruction, entertainment alright.

I played with GI Joes as a child and had high hopes for this but it was disappointing. The story and action as whole. Not sure why. The movie definitely was long. The first was far better.

Watched it as a child. Made me very emotional and tearful. Good clean fun. Touching story about friendship between a man and a dragon!!? Morals and Royal family. Very nice movie considering the fact that CGI is far better now.

One of my all time favorites. I always enjoyed it. The dark humor and sarcasm is unmatched. Total unrealistic portrayal of doing what goes inside the mind of rich cynical yuppies of 80's. I have never read the novel written by Brett Easton Ellis. Based on his story, the film is worth of praise. Every line is iconic. Christian Bale does a great job here displaying the highs and lows of manic insanity. His interaction with other characters is very entertaining. There is nothing realistic nor serious here. So please this is a sarcastic, dark, twisted comedy. The mind bender in the end is also very intriguing. Makes you question what really took place here. Some scenes are very strong and are sexual, physical and abusive in nature. Nevertheless this is timeless and the range of Mr. Bale's acting is impressive.

It is one of the most gorgeous films I have seen. Great work on the cinematography. Vivid and the story-line develops visually as well. It is very dream like. I would even say that visual achievement takes center stage here. Now the story, for a person who does not enjoy romantic movies I thoroughly enjoyed it. Ms Sanchez-Gijon portrays her role with a beautiful vulnerability. Touching and so is the entire family. I found the story to be quite beautiful and honorable. I have seen many Keanu Reeves movies and was about to think this as his best role ever until I saw his Razzie nomination for this role. Unacceptable! Do I live in a different planet from all these morons? Anyway watch this movie, you will not be disappointed. To me it is unusual.

Please do not waste any time on this movie. The story line is in one word, disgusting. Awful. Despicable. Words cannot describe. It starts with a deceptive nice story and a character played by Mr. Keanu Reeves. And then soon everything goes to hell. Simply unacceptable. As much as I am a fan of Mr. Reeves, I believe he should not agree to do such films. The only reason he would do such a thing is to give a platform to the two girls in the movie. Still. On a sarcastic note, his unhinged rant by the end of the movie was hilarious. Eli Roth is crazy and this is not even horror. What is the genre, Cringe-worthy? Disaster.

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. The jokes about Albanians were hilarious and Peter Falk's character was the most ridiculous. Just one person creating so many multi dimensional characters. Especially the fire scene. Very dramatic. Keanu Reeves and Barbara Hershey play very good characters with romantic interests in each other. Well you end up rooting for Keanu's character since he has such an endearing innocence. The backdrop, scenery and the costumes are very colorful and convincing. The movie is a great joy to watch. It brings light to a entertainment medium that is hard to imagine in this digital age.
