I totally forgot about that even though I wrote about (though that was maybe 2 years ago). My god, her version would have been 180 different (and probably 180x better).

@Circus, yes, didn't live up to expectations at all and Invictus is said to be lukewarm as well.

The big 3 didn't cut it. Avatar is the last "hope," though I never had much faith in its oscar chances. We'll see…, but I would bet against it.

No lie.

I don't think I've ever witnessed press walking out of screenings. It's not a wise thing to do.

I heard from one person who i know who saw it said that there were a lot of walk outs during the movie.

I actually take back what I always believed- that he could only play monosyllabic meatheads.

Was my very first thought when i finished seeing it. I almost think this review is too charitable.
