Unbelievable movie. The special effects were so good, it kind of took over the movie. The story was pretty good, but i was so in awe over the 3D special effects it's hard to really focus on the story.

It's a must see for any movie fans. Before i went to see the movie i read one critic call it the future of filmmaking. He was right.

I loved the movie in 3D. It might be one of the coolest movies i've ever seen.

Really? I've heard from several people that the dialogue and story are pretty weak and dumbed down, but the effects made up for it.

The Blindside was pretty awesome. Would recommend this movie to just about anyone.

bought inglorious bastards a few weeks ago, finally got to watch it the other night.

im a huge tarantino (sp?) fan and heard good things about bastards but it didnt meet my expectations.

one of the problems i had was reading the subtitles. the yellow coloring placed on teh bottom of the picture screen instead of the letterbox made it hard to read for about half the scenes. and i watch alot of subtitle movies.

the plot fizzled for me too.

oh well.

Basterds was one of my favorite movies of the year. Excellent movie. One of the best of the last decade imo.

Ditto and I liked the captioning I think it was done well. OTM may need his eyes checked.

The scene in the downstairs bar is one of the most intense scenes ever.

basterds was a good movie and im going to watch it again but it wasnt in the same class as the kill bills, dogs, pulp fiction etc.

the jew bear scene had intensity and tarantino drew out the tension really nicely like the underground bar scene. but idk man, it just didnt register as high of a level with me as tarantinos past movies.

and i do need my eyes checked, had my left eye smashed in and reconstructed so when ever im watching a game or movies with subtitle i cant read the score and all that annoying stuff.

i figured basterds was a sure fire movie for me so i bought it before seeing it, dont know how i came away alil disappointed.

i normaly stay away from the avatar-transformer type movies but you guys have piqued my interest.

It wasnt nearly as gory as i thought it was going to be,I thought there would be more Germans tortured and bloodied.I'm not dissapoiinted that there wasnt,just surprised.
I know most movies are fiction but i couldnt get past the ending {SPOILER ALERT!!} since you know who doesnt really die in real life

Watched hurt Locker, awesome movie a must see.

for our MW 2 fans there are a lot guns in the movie that are in the game, kind of neat. I am not big into guns so if I didn't play MW 2 would not know half of them.

Also there is a small Redskin's cameo, see if you can spot it.

You know as much as I love guns in video games, I have zero interest in shooting them for real. By the way I'm loving the ACR right now. It's a beast.

Same here I don't like things around me that cause instant death. You know guns, rattle snakes, great white sharks, etc...

Been looking forward to Hurt Locker for a long time. Got it last night and i wasn't disappointed. Very good "war" flick. Obviously, it's a very tense, suspenseful movie. It's a must see.
