Possibly the best movie I have seen this year... Amazing.

You Americans have to wait a few weeks though - comes out late December.

I saw this movie, i really didnt like.
dont understand why there is such a buzz around it.
no story inside, simple pitch (i wont even say more unless i'll spoil).

the story could be better with the movie idea.

No story?
Name a movie with a story and I'll say how this is as good as, or better than it.

Well i just watched a beautiful movie.. not for the ones who don't like a beautiful love story, but so moving and so beautifully done..sniff!!

Notebook ...  even the tough guys.. if you see this in private and it doesn't move you, then forget ever to love..

I quite liked Children of Men. The plot was a little weak but the dialogue, acting, directing and general style of the whole film was, in my opinion, very good. Got such an Orwellian feel from it just looking at the colours  ;D
Daniel: "This tastes like chicken."
Carter: "So what's wrong with it?"
Daniel: "It's macaroni and cheese."

Something interesting was at the end with the building he runs up, if you notice it's like a 5 min continuous shot or something, and at the beginning they get blood on the camera. Apparently that was the best take so they just used it and CGI'd out the blood! Crazy what you can do these days.

I saw this a few months ago. I was expecting a lot but I thought it was crap!

I agree with MrPook, the whole concept of the movie was amazing but they didn't use it to it's greatest potential. It could have been better.
