Yes, he was. I like him, anyway, though.Originally Posted by Janine
I have seen the "Horatio Hornblower" series, but so long ago when they were first on TV. It is definitely an epic, but I think they are worth the time. Especially if it is a weekend where the weather is lousy and you have no other plans!
Quite honestly, she was the problem that I had with the film! She was the reason I only gave it a 9.75/10! I just was irritated by her. Maybe I was in a bad mood that day, too, though! Who knows!I was maybe a little dubious about the Romala Garai, because I always relate her to lighter stories and more modern films, but I think it worked and the little interplay between them lend the film a bit of lightness that it direly needed at times.
You know, his hair threw me off at first! It took a little time for me to get used to it! It just seemed odd on him. Then I saw him comment on that, too, on the DVD.I wasn't sure about Rufus Sewel at first.... In the extra he said he was suppose to be a little quirky and so he was with that strange hair.
Yes, the whole cast was very good. Well, Ciaran Hinds is always good in my book.
hehe you may
I really liked that film but i simply adore "Z"!! The subject matter, the music, the directing, the actors

Jumper 10/10
I just got back from the movies. Saw Jumper and it was great. It kept me interested from start to finish and Hayden looked FINE
The movie is based on a sci fi book of the same name. I've never read the book myself so I can't compare the two, but as far as this movie goes I was completely satisfied. It's about a kid who discovers that he can teleport, and with his newly discovered talent he frees himself from a less than ideal home situation. For a while, he lives the dream, paying his way with money he gets from teleporting into bank safes. One second he's surfing the waves in Fiji and when he gets tired of that, he breaks for lunch on the Sphinx in Egypt. But all good things must come to an end and they do when the Paladins pick up his trail...
All in all, it was a good movie and kept me in my seat the whole time, and did I mention Hayden Christensen looked sexy ???
LEt me wash my mouth out before I comment...that foul taste remains...Jumper 10/10

Hayden was great in Star WArs, especially at the whole dragging the franchsie down as far as possible before it actually lost respect. Him, Paul WAlker, how do these people STAY EMPLOYED?!?!
Jumper got hardly any stars from any reputable critics...Scott, Ebert, Siskel, etc...keeping my distance.

"No Country For Old Men"
6/10
I am not a follower of this genre, so I may not be objective, but I chose to watch it because of Javier Bardem, whom I A-D-O-R-E. Well, I loved his effort to carry the burden of that movie, otherwise...

Oh, I'm sorry. The critics didn't like it, so I should let them influence me when I go to see the movie. You can't rely on the critics to let you know what's good to watch. Do you let the media think for you all the time?
I watch a movie so that I can be entertained and Jumper was entertaining. I was aware the critcs didn't like it. I also know that I've wasted money on tickets to movies the critics liked. But you go ahead and listen the critics. And while you're at it, don't bother to have a single original thought.
ok don't kill the peace maker here (or any other clich'e) but i hated jumper and i didnt know that it got bad reviews
Luv Always,
