The first half of the movie is a tad boring, focusing mostly on plot points, but once it gets going the action sequences are very enjoyable and some downright amazing. It’s enjoyable if not Die Hard good.

A horrible, horrible movie. Painfully unfunny and ridiculously sanctimonious and preachy. I’m very disappointed in Steve Carell for agreeing to make this piece of crap.

I consider myself a bit of a soundtrack collector and this is one of the best I’ve heard in a long, long time. A fantastic soundtrack kicked off by the haunting Hoist the Colors, the song sung at the opening of the movie. A must have for anyone who likes orchestral soundtracks.

It’s definitely cute, but doesn’t come close to the first two. Still, people will whine about it because a lot of people equate cute with silly or stupid.

Good effects and an interesting story can’t completely make up for a bad script. It’s enjoyable, but definitely the worst of the three.

This is a really, really BAD movie. In its sleep it dreams of being mediocre. The acting is abysmal, the dialogue laughable, and the production values rank somewhere between a training video and what happens when a three year-old finds the on button on mommy and daddy’s camcorder. At best, this movie is so bad it’s funny. So, why did I mark it as worth it? Simple: the experience of seeing the movie in a theater surrounded by crazed fans in costumes and makeup acting out the plot. The make fun of the movie and its characters lovingly, but seem to relish how horrible this thing really is. The fact so many eventual stars got their start in this movie gives it an interesting curio factor as well.

I realize I’m probably about to have my sense of humor card revoked, but even though there are parts of this movie that are funny I really wasn’t all that impressed. I like Will Farrell and love Steve Carell, but this just isn’t either’s finest moment. I didn’t laugh until 30 minutes into the movie, a bad sign for a comedy.

I wanted to like this one and am sad to say I didn’t.

Not a great movie by any great stretch of the imagination, but enjoyable. Cruz is good, but not Oscar worthy. I think everyone was just surprised she managed to emote. Early scenes with the young girl playing her teenaged daughter, who is pretty good, are creepy beyond necessity.

A very good movie. The acting is excellent, but all that Oscar talk for Leo is just hype. He’s good, but he was significantly better in The Departed. It’s not even close.

Very good movie, but a ridiculously bad ending.
