  • I can't watch Traffic with a straight face, I keep picturing that guy's roll in Next Friday. :P

  • Your favorite band sucks, and you have terrible taste in movies.

<div style='font: 11pt Dominion; text-align: left; '>Didn't all of you praise it when it was in the theatres? Thought it deserved to get more awards than Gladiator?

I was expecting a blockbuster here.. and I got crap. Blow was better than this movie; much better. What was soo special? I found it VERY slow and dull most of the time.. not to mention hard to follow in the beginning.
The story wasn't compelling, or even exactly interesting. It was funny at times, and nice double crosses at times.. but besides that nothing.

It wasn't a bad movie.. but it wasn't hte blockbuster I was expecting</div>

<div style='font: 9pt Arial; text-align: left; '>And blockbuster doesn't necessarily equal good. Notice how much Armageddon and The Mummy are trashed here.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "comic sans MS"; text-align: left; '>You should rephrase that to "...I'm wary of a movie that the PDFA ~produces~." Which they did not. This movie was not intended to please PDFA, just to show us a small window of the "other side".</div>
