    Great movie. Definitely messes with your head. For those that have read the book, does seeing the movie first establish a bad precedent for reading the book?

    This movie sucked. It was about forty minutes too long and dragged on painfully almost the entire way. The twist was decent although you had a pretty good idea what was coming (minus some details) but it really didn't matter because by the end I didn't really care what happened. The movie tried to be too many different things and ultimately failed at all of them.

    I'm a little surprised it is doing as well as it is on rotten tomatoes. I would say wait for this to come out on DVD but if you have a comfortable couch or recliner you might fall asleep before you get through the movie. If you watch it at home make sure you watch it on a bar stool or better yet a treadmill if you want to make it to the end.

    I do not like hallucinations in movies. You never know if you can believe what you are seeing on the screen. It's annoying.

    This could be interesting. I thought the movie was pretty good.

    Generally most things in movies are made up. Unless of course you are watching Balto, which actually really happened.

    I didn't like the movie but a TV show sounds interesting. Will watch.
