Too bad it has commercials...boo.

Anyway, great movie. I highly recommend it to anyone who hasn't seen it.

I don't have TV :^D

Is it really good, or are you being sarcastic? It seems to have spawned a lot of jokes :^D

I've seen it and it's an average movie at best. The story is, meh, acting is, meh. This movie has a lot of hype going for it and that's about it. It get's a lot of attention because of the man on man action, but the truth is without that people wouldn't be talking about this film.

It really is a good movie. I'm not being sarcastic.

I did post this partially to incite the jesus freaks though. ;)

I disagree. I thought it was a very powerful movie in the subject matter and the acting was excellent. The tent scene I could do without but the rest of the movie was really touching.

I don't really find flicks about adultery that entertaining, outside of porn. For me it doesn't matter that it's dudes, it could be two women or a man and a women, it's just another sappy chick flick that got waaayyyy to much exposure because of the man love aspect.

If you like it though go for it, I don't really do chick flicks.

Yep, horrible acting, plot was weak and predictable. And way to gay. Overrated shit movie.

it's a very good flick, very well made. should be seen by all. It was a very well-received story well before the film was made. Annie Proulx is no slouch. Nor is Ang Lee.

discrediting it as poor acting, weak, predictable, chick flick, blah blah...is uninformed at best. go back to Vin Diesel if that's what gets your single ganglion twitching.

Thats pretty much exactly how I feel about it.
Aside from having mainstream actors in a gay cowboy movie, this is nothing special.

Good or bad, it's not a subject that interests me enough to push the button on the remote.

The best part was how Ang Lee failed to be a gracious loser and delivered this terribly confused rant when asked for his thoughts on losing Best Film.

Isn't Anne Hathaway naked in this movie? Kind of redeeming quality for the guys that are forced to watch it by their women....
