Yeah, it's a really good movie. Jim Carry did a great job.

I downloaded and watched it... and then immediatley deleted it.

I would rather dip my balls in a shark aquarium than watch that movie again.

I watched it cause I've heard a lot of good things about it, but it seemed pretty boring to me.

exactly.

this movie (as well as some of my other favorites) requires an attention span of more than five minutes.

eternal sunshine is a fantastic film. it will win awards.

Atarom AND Faerdal like it, enough said.

It's a movie for quasi-intellectuals to stroke their brain-penises to.

Kind of like that shitpile Royal Tanenbaums.

I walked out of Royal...one of the only movies I ever have. It was such an incredible waste of my time, it's not even funny.

its pretty slow moving but actually an interesting idea and well executed movie.
Overall I'd say its exceptional as a human condition movie since i really found the exploration of idea of removing a loved one from ones memories and falling for them again a very fresh idea.

As with all movies i think expectations are 80% of the experience...its all what you prepair yoursself for..and this is ment to be a thoughtful drama that makes you consider the meaning of things like love and attraction ect..
If you open youself to that type of movie its quite good..

I would say that while movies similar to this one don't interest me a whole lot, I do have the tolerance/attention span to watch them. I just didn't enjoy it.

As to the Rotten Tomatoes critics... they're dumb. I, Robot and Man on Fire are the two best movies (imo) this year and scored very poorly compared to other releases this year.

I've never walked out of a movie, but if I had, it would have been the Royal Tanenbaums. And the funny thing is, I sort of like that sort of thing. Looking back on it, I remember some things I liked, but the actual experience of watching the movie was awful. I was just thinking "you call this weird? I could be ten times weirder than that.". But maybe the point was it was just slightly weird. I don't know, it seems better in hindsight a little I guess.

5. Subtext (a permeating feeling, or the true intention of what you do or say, e.g "Did you feed the cat?" could contain all sorts of psychological colourings and meanings hidden under a seemingly banal query) underlies most if not all actions or spoken words.

This sentence was more enjoyable compared to the movie Sad

Doesn't matter what they do, fact remains the reviews they give for most better movies are poor, and reviews for overrated movies are exceptionally higher.

There are not "rottentomatoes" critics. All the website does is compile newspaper, web, and magazine reviews from all over the country and link them on one page along with the meter that shows how many liked the movie and how many didn't. So what you mean is "critics are dumb", not "rottontomatoes critics are dumb", since those don't actually exist.

And you think I, Robot, a movie that contained no more than 5 main characters, (including the f*****g robot), was a better movie?

Sorry, but LOL. No. The movie sucked.

it was weird

it did provoke a little bit of thought, so thats a plus..


but it isnt an intellectual movie by any means


just because they used a poem in the title and you figured out the trick ending before it happened doesnt make it or you smart


overall it was a good new concept but it wasn't executed in the best way it could have been .. theres lots of thought to provoke from this topic, they only managed to provoke a little


but to say at least one thing good about it .. its 10X better than most of the shit out there
