Well, as you might know, K-PAX with Kevin Spacey and Jeff Bridges will be out very soon, and I highly recommend you watch it. I thought that it was a great movie and it had many many funny moments, although its not a commedy. I really think that Spacey will get nominated or even win an oscar for this movie. Although, this movie was not a American Beauty it is pretty darn close and over all it just leaves you with a nice feeling inside. There were some parts that dragged on a bit, but this was needed in order to develop the story and not rush through what the director was trying to convey.


Overall in my is suck scale, 1 being not is suck and 10 being is suck much.

I give this movie a 2.7 is suck.

So with conversion, you're only giving it a 7.3?
Boy, that's not too good, considering I really think that Spacey will get nominated or even win an oscar for this movie. :)
Lower your score, I don't watch anything under an 8 on the normal scale.

Yo,
Haven't seen the movie, but love that seen in the commercial

Cracks me up.

Oh man...I had a free screening ticket of that for today. But it's in the middle of my midterm days so I gave it away. I didn't think the movie would be good since I never heard of it (no tv at this point).

i thought it was an awesome movie, the end was very open though. some parts were very cliche but overall i thought it was very enjoyable.

actually if he gave it a 2.7 since the scale is from 1-10 not 0 to 10, its more like an 8.3, or i guess normallized around an 8.0

<< I didn't think the movie would be good since I never heard of it (no tv at this point). >>

<sarcasm> Yeah, IMHO that's why 'Usual Suspects', 'Go', 'Lock Stock & Two Smokin' Barrels', 'Swingers' and 'Made Men' all sucked ass...they didn't have enough TV exposure and without the ads on MTV the movie is bound to suck...</sarcasm>

I also just saw this movie last night, and I disagree with your analysis. It had great acting, I loved Spacey and his work in K-Pax was excellent. Bridges was very good too.

But this movie was not very interesting. I saw most of the plot twists early on. One Flew Over the Cukoo's Nest did every thing K-Pax did and did it better.

I won't give spoilers, but this was not the most original movie. I did like the constant focus on light throughout the movie. The way the camera always focused on light was great, but it could have used some more excitement during the psychiatric sessions.

6/10
