I just saw it.

I smiled, I cried, my heart is opening.

This is the saddest, most beautiful, heartfelt, inspiring thing i have seen is so long.

Fire signs, and Leo's especially, absolutely must see this.

This movie should get Best Director, Best Picture, and Best Actor.

Mickey Rourke is so wonderful in this movie.

You're welcome. Yeah, mostly crap gets made.

The only thing out right now that looks remotely good to me (besides The Wrestler) is "Doubt".

Zack & Miri make a Porno surprised me! It was really a great love story. Also, another movie that surprised me was What Happens In Vegas. I actually really liked that movie. And the last good one I saw was The Curious Case of Benajamin Button. That was really a good movie. Oh yeah, and I almost forgot 7 Pounds. Some people hated it but I "got" it. Excellent movie.
