I just went to Best Buy store in Houston, Texas, the store on Southwest side of town by Hwy 59. The store had 11 more copies as of this afternoon at 6:00 pm.

I have the receipt in my hand and the DVD in my DVD player, enjoy.

Its not that great of a movie...

Sure it is about a prison, but IMHO it adds very little groundshattering meaning to my world.

I don't see how it is #2 or somewhere high like that on the imdb.com
Maybe you people would like to explain to me whats so great about what seems to be a standard "good prisioner, bad prisioner" film...

/flameshield activated :cool: alright, bring it

how about Time out w/ Britney spears or Attack of the 50 feet women... QUALITY movies right there. I laughed when I saw these 2 on the DVD rack at Blockbuster. Heh, the sad part is that I actually watched AOT50FW (being lazy w/ typing :D) once :(

I agree this is one of the best movies of all time. Now if uncouth wants to know why this was such a great movie let me start with a few details. Excellent cinematics and camera work, a brilliant story twist, an awesome intellectual narrator, a great story, ability to feel the characters emotions through simple story work, you got to know each one almost personally. I don't know about the rest of you, but even if you don't get sad at movies, there were times in this film where you felt it, and I won't ruin anything for those who haven't seen it yet, but you guys who've seen it know what I mean.

Uncouth,

Tell us some better movies than this one, and tell us why in a similar fashion that I've done here and why your movie is better ;) Now I'm not saying this is the end all be all of movies, but it's certainly in my top 10 and I own the DVD as well. Have for quite some time.
