<div style='font: 11pt georgia; text-align: left; '>Watched it last night. Ive always been told its one of THE movies you have to see. Maybe it was all the hype, but it didnt live up to my expectations. I didnt even know what it was about, all I knew was...I just HAD to see it. Ok, so I saw it. Errr....yeah..its Quentin Tarantino, I really loved Pulp Fiction, but Reservoir Dogs doesnt even compare.

Im not saying it was horrible, I liked it. I just don't see how THIS movie is one of THE movies you have to see. Fuck this, Fuckin that...seems like they randomly added the word "fuck" in to try to get a shock or something.

I dunno..Im up in the air about it. It kinda reminds me of Snatch in some weird way...the bad guys getting fucked over. I really liked Snatch though.

Anyone else?</div>

<div style='font: 11pt Dominion; text-align: left; '>It was a decent movie but you're right-- definitely not as great of one as I'd heard. I did like how everyone died in the end but it just wasn't that good of a movie; I was expecting a lot better of a twist.

Maybe it's just me and I'm starting to be able to pick up on the random twists...I dunno, decent but far from great.</div>

You can't compare it to Snatch...that's like comparing the Spawn movie to Spiderman's
