It's a great movie! I've seen it twice and found it entertaining both times. It's great to see a movie like this....fresh and out of the norm. I caught a lot of things the second time around that I missed the first time. I highly recommend it!

Me....our schedule's been all messed up all month so I've gotta lose about 15.

Oh, sorry....

Been meaning to see this but it'll likely be a rental for us.

While I liked Will Smith's performance in this movie, I found the overall storyline to be lacking and painfully predictable. Don't want to play the role of spoiler, but suffice to say I hated being able to figure the whole thing out about 30 minutes into the flick.

I say wait for the DVD ...

I didn't like it. It was much too slow to develop and although I am a Will Smith fan, I didn't think his acting was all that great in this flick. For all the Hype that this movie is getting, I thought it was a major letdown. But, what the hell do I know it will probably win some awards

The ads leave me confused on what it is?

With out spoiling it can you explain a bit or do you just gotta see it?

I wasn't sure what to expect either. It's one of those movies where little pieces of the puzzle are slowly revealed and everything comes together in the end. I'd say more, but it might ruin it for you.

pm me the details, knowing what happens doesn't spoil it for me. I laugh when people get mad about that.

I saw it twice too. In fact, I cried even more the second time around. It is very slow moving and confusing in parts but they'll all come together near the end. Very good movie.

I enjoyed it. But, I think I'll have to watch it again - I missed stuff.
