I watched it last night.
Cool flick.
Scarlett Johansson makes my loins ache.
That is all.

I missed the trailer.
Never saw or heard anything about it. It was a new release so I grabbed it.
It was the best sci-fi movie I've watched in a long time.
I really enjoy that futurisma crap.

The last good one I saw was Minority Report, before that was the Uma Thurman movie, Gattica I think it was.

It was a great movie. You guys need to learn to just sit back and enjoy a flick. Stop over-analyzing ******. Movies like Soul Plane and The Cookout are stupid. This movie was pretty good.

I just got done watching it. It wasn't great, but it was better than spending those 2 hours on here. :p

Wasn't too bad. Though the whole time I was watching it I was annoyed that it was a complete ripoff of Parts: The Clonus Horror (which I would've never seen had I not been a huge MST3K fan).

Soul Plane and The Cookout were stupid? Next you will try and tell me that the remake of The Honeymooners was stupid too!

I thought it was a fun movie, worth a watch. Not the best movie ever, but it was entertaining. It also helped that Scarlett Johansson was looking mighty hot.

Movie was good, not the best. I like the more "thoughtful" aspect of the movie with the mercenary leader

Typical Bruckheimer flick. Lots of commercial placement, impossible events (Armageddon anyone?), but just plain fun.

I think people have come to expect too much from movies. It's not supposed to be critically acclaimed, change the world, or inspire the masses. It's supposed to entertain you for a couple hours. Everyone is different, so it's not going to entertain everyone. Doesn't make it a "crap movie" if it's not to your tastes.

It used up all it's good ideas in the first hour. After that it was pretty much a regular action movie with no plot to speak of, though it did have some kick ass action scenes.
