Was the movie good? I heard it was very cinematic and "epic" like Forest Gump.
Frankly the premise and previews scare me.

It wasn't great (too long) but it wasn't bad either. The style, setting and special effects were great, but the story kinda dragged, especially once the novelty of the premise wears off, and you don't feel like come away with much after it all wraps up.

brad pitt is pretty hot though, no ****...

I'm 17 and go to an "urban" high school, even I feel uncomfortable using the word steez. It just seems contrived to me?

And I'm too old to even know what it means.

Meh, we ended up seeing Valyrie. I was just relieved that it wasn't The Spirit. I'm really glad we saw that instead of Benjamin Button because going to an 11:00pm showing of that would have been agony for me.

i noticed the styling was good too. told my wife i wanted the cardigan while we were watching it.

but the movie itself sucked. like forest gump was driving miss daisy to the titanic. they tried to incorporate little snippets of too many things and wasted time on meaningless stuff and didn't devote enough time to important stuff. but it was entertaining if you're not too critical...
