I think he didn’t like it. I’m not sure, that is just my opinion.

[Pablo64]

I wish this guy wouldn’t beat around the bush. Tell us how you really feel.

[Leofl]

I am not afraid to say it, THIS FILM DESERVES TO BE BOYCOTTED!!!!!!!!!!!!

More Anti-American tripe

[FormerLib]

I hope Brian De Palma lives the rest of his days looking over his soldier for some Marine to come up and teach him some lessons about life.

[FormerLib]

Over his SHOULDER! D’oh.

CityNews.ca Staff

"Beowulf" ridded a Danish kingdom of a massive beast named Grendel, and was rewarded with a $28.1 million debut weekend and the top spot at the box office.

The animated telling met with little competition, getting a nice boost with 40 per cent of sales coming from special 3-D showings.

1. "Beowulf," $28.1 million.
2. "Bee Movie," $14.3 million.
3. "American Gangster," $13.2 million.
4. "Fred Claus," $12 million.
5. "Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium," $10 million.
6. "Dan in Real Life," $4.5 million.
7. "No Country for Old Men," $3 million.
8. "Lions for Lambs," $3 million.
9. "Saw IV," $2.3 million.
10. "Love in the Time of Cholera," $1.9 million.

[The Worthless Miracle]

Medved has absolute credibility imo. He is honest, comforting and down to earth in everything he says. Good for him - his eloquence is an often overlooked boon for our side.

[Baladas]

Thjat was my take on Medved’s review as well. He sure doesn’t seem to have much tolerance for anti-American propoganda, does he?

[freekitty]

This movie must be pretty sick.

“Hey honey, it’s been a tough week. Let’s go out to see ‘Love in the Time of Cholera’ so we can unwind a little.”

Sound like something you’d say to your significant other?

I’ll probably see this when it comes to cable, but wow, did they really think this was going to be a big draw?

I guess some stories shoud be told no matter the profit margine.

I thought Redacted was released this weekend. It didn’t show in the top ten. Did it show that poorly, or will it be released later?

[LittleBillyInfidel]

Haven’t seen it...but I can’t wait to line up around the block behind nobody to not see this film and then not buy the DVD! DePalmjob - way to revive your career. The ‘’Rush’’ thing was soooo subtly BRILLIANT!!!

[NonValueAdded]

Summing it up, “Redacted” should be.

[DoughtyOne]

Sounds like it.

[Bobalu]

It’s up on usenet...
I don’t think I will download it....free is nowhere near cheap enough....they would have to pay me to sit through this one...BIG BUX

NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN is the best movie I have seen in years. Highly recommended to everyone... no politics, just a meditation on growing old in a changing and violent world.

[padre35]

It showed this weekend and maybe last weekend, it performed terribly and the studio lost money on this dog with fleas..

Ahh, but a mere boycott of one film won’t do the trick, the Studio will then release “Wonder Ant and his Family” that the kiddies will go to watch, and the Ant will gross tens of millions and make up for this loser of film.

If there is to be a boycott, it must be the entire studio’s line of films, not just one movie.

[hercuroc]

ha ha...

that’s why it’s already on the pay movie channel on Time Warner

and they’re trying to get $10 FOR IT

BWAHAHAHAHAHAH

[Beckwith]

How is Cuban making money IN TEXAS!

Why are people buying tickets to Mavericks games?

I hope the MF goes bankrupt and is ostracized by the community.

[DoughtyOne]

Thanks for the mention. I’ll keep an eye out for it.
