I like the movie. I like the ending because I don't want another Rocky type happy ending.

The only thing that I didn't like was after she got hurt and in the hospital, the pace of the movie seem to be slower than the rest of the movie.

There were a lot of crappy movies this past year.

critics+media echo chamber+studio hype department = oscar
If someone in your movie is on death row, dies, or has some sort of handicap = oscar as well.

:thumbsup: good list too :)

I found it overly long. I also didn't like how the first hour or so had no soundtrack that I recall.

What was the first clue that the movie took place in modern times? For me I think it was the Apprentice ad on the side of the bus.

Pretty much any movie starring Leonardo Decrappio is guaranteed to suck

That movie did suck. Clint could pop out the life story of a turd and still the Academy would consider it for an Oscar.

i think it's a pretty good movie actually. i loved how much i got to hate her family. i loved when she told her mother to get her fat white trash @ss out. ;)

it was kind of sad how she died tho.

I enjoyed Aviator FAR more than Million Dollar Baby (which I liked). Kate Blanchett rocked...

i don't go to watch movies to feel sad and shiet. i want to be entertained, and not mope around. also, the mom's story is way too far fetched, unrealistic, unjustified, and not explained clearly enough.

What movie doesn't suck these days? Off the top of my head, I can remember seeing maybe 1 or 2 movies this year that didn't make me want to slay the directors and writers for making such a sucky piece of crap.

And I can't even remember the names of those two movies. :(
