I really liked this movie. It wasnt fully accurate, yet neither was Shakespeare.

Good characters.
Good actors.
Good fights.
Good filming.

I knocked over a lamp in the living room during the last round.

Cinderella Man was an excellent movie. Saw it on pay for view. Would watch it again.

Cinderella Man was a good movie, but it got a little "long".

And I actually liked The Island, but that had more to do with Scarlett Johansen. Have mercy, that's one hot mama.

It was fairly boring.

>>>...Scarlett Johansen. Have mercy, that's one hot mama.

She's inspiring. Impure thoughts...

Oh so true, the Hollywierds do not care what films are revered by the public, but only their politics ie: not a single nomination for the biggest drawing film of all time (Passion) and then a backdoor nomination for Pokeback Mountain? Film making is a lost art, and Hollywierd is too blind to see.

Cinderella Man was excellent. 16 Blocks was good. There are others that are good, but it seems fewer worthwhile.

Her and Jessica Alba are the two that keep me in trouble with my wife.

But then again, she likes that Matthew Mcconaughey, so that makes us even.

'Chronicles of Narnia' was my favorite...of course it was practically the only recent film I paid to go see. I heard it won three Oscars in some minor categories. Anyone know which? I was at an evening church service during the telecast.

Come on, everyone knows that Batman Begins was the best movie of 2005.

I really like this guy for his words to take apart the Hollywood left, as well as his preference for movies that are uplifting, enlightening and true!

LOL!

...Don't think it went over too well with George Clooney and his pals at the Academy, though ;-).

Regardless of the politics one finds in it, The Island is one of the lamest films I've ever seen. The endless stream of product placements didn't help.
