Looks good, been wanting to see it. Hear it was based on true story.

I'd like to know as well... can't decide whether to see that or "Dodgeball"...

I've seen lots of terminals. Some are better than others. It really depends on what you're after.

"Inspired by" would be a more accurate statement.

IMO it was awful. Out of the 4 people in the theater, 2 left halfway though. The other two (my girlfriend and I) seriously considered it. I'm considering writing to Spielberg to get my money back. The story is full of holes, and the movie is one big cliche. I guess that you could view it as some sort of fairy tale, but then the ending is unsatisfying by fairy-tale standards. Some other people seem to like it though. The reviews that I have seen have been mixed.

Just out of curiosity, how old are you?

Based on would imply that Tom Hanks' character is a real person somewhere rather than a completely fictional character.

Ah, nitpicking.

went with my wife and mom. we all liked it.

 

[imported_KirbsAw]

I really liked it, it's really worth seeing imo. It's a really good movie to take a date to.

We're talking about the movie that just came out with Tom Hanks.

 

[EvilYoda]

Yes, good movie...but if you're a Spielberg hater, this one is no different

 

[nboy22]

It's a good movie, interesting plot too.

I'm 29. I never thought about it, but I never liked ET (even as a small kid), and I was pissed at what Spielberg did to the end of Artificial Intelligence. Maybe this makes me a Spielberg hater, I don't know.

As far as holes in the plot, I don't want to give anything away, but the protaginist's situation certainly would have gotten some media attention in real life. Also, I didn't really understand why Stanley Tucci's character was so mad at Tom Hanks' character towards the end of the movie.

You're thinking entirely too much. This ain't a William Faulkner novel we're talking about, it's a comedy. You're SUPPOSED to think less and laugh more with a movie like this.

Oh yeah, and the movie is hilarious. The character Gupta is the sh!t, hope the actor who played him gets a nomination for best supporting actor.
