I'd say either the Island or Narnia. Haven't seen Narnia yet but I did see the other 2 and The Weatherman was pretty crappy and boring.

island, a mehhh scifi
Weather Man, havent seen it but...wtf? "A Chicago weather man (Cage), separated from his wife and children, debates whether professional and personal success are mutually exclusive" ... and he has a shotgun on the cover and alot of arrows
narnia, worth seeing just to see it

I'd watch the island if it's what I think it is. Narnia was decent, so was weatherman.

Definitely the Island. It was much better than I expected. I heard weatherman is pretty crappy, and Narnia is pretty good I've heard but somewhat childish.

And Scarlett Johanson looks hot as shlt in The Island ... definitely The Island :thumbsup:

Island and Narnia are great. Weatherman blows. Narnia is diffrent than the norm so I say go for that. Change it up a bit.

Narnia was pretty good for a movie that featured talking beavers that wore plate armor.

I don't know about the weatherman.

The island was kind of retarded, although I've seen a lot worse movies recently.

Weatherman definently, not a "great" movie but worth watching imo.
Narnia sucks because it's so average.
The Island i haven't watched and i prolly won't. But that's enough to make me not recommend it.

[edit]
Okay, dudes, the island can't be good, it's made by Michael Bay who made, cover your eyes if you've got a bad heart, Pearl Harbor.

I didn't mind the start, slow starts are fine with me. But the acting is underwhelming and completely awkwardly shot. It's hugely uninteresting.

Slow starts are fine as long as there's something to them.
I'm just glad I only borrowed the DVD and didn't pay to see it.

I liked Island a lot. Good action flick.
Narnia was ok. Didn't see Weatherman but i might rent it

Another vote for The Island. I'm glad I didn't waste any money on Narnia. It was horrible. I watched the whole, expecting to be surprised at some point, but was disappointed in the end.

You must not like hot women in spandex much. Or women in general.

unless weatherman got really awesome in the last half or so I'd say no. that movie put me to sleep twice. The Island is 2nd to Narnia, but I think that's been the concensus so far anyway

Yes, but that's not reason enough for me to watch a movie.

weatherman was boring and pointless.
the island is just about as braindead as it gets.
