Anybody gone and seen this yet? Looks pretty sweet and got a lot of good reviews. Hopefully I can go see it tonight or tomorrow, but I'm not sure how easy it'll be to get in since I'm only 16.

Holy crap that was the best comic book ever! I can't believe they made a movie out of it!

Good shtuff Maynard.
EVIL FRODO!!!!#@$)!@#($)!@()!@$%*!)#%*
I just got back from seeing it and will agree with NavatoSCFR that is is freakin' weird, I don't know what to think about it. I really like the style of filming but I'm not sure that I like the story. Mabye I need to go see it again.
COmtbiker12 It might be hard for you to get in, I had my ID checked 3 times. This is at a place where they usually don't check ID at all. This movie definitly earned its R rating.
Yeah Elijah Wood was pretty creepy, come to think of it almost everyone was creepy, I think the yellow guy might top the list though.

Just went and saw it. Great movie, highly entertaining, a little wierd and grotesque at some moments. I'm still a bit confused by the significance of the Josh Hartnett character, but probably reading the comics would help, anyone have some insight on it?
It is kind of cliched, at least the dialogue, but it also has some moments of brilliance and it works well with the cliches. The cinematography is incredible and very traditional in some senses, but at the same time it is like nothing you have seen before(though it did remind me of some Kill Bill 1 and 2 scenes at times).
Also, the girls in the group liked it a lot as well, so while I wouldn't call it a date movie, it isn't just a guy's action movie.
Jessica Alba and the Gilmore Girl's chick are so hot!

That was hands down the best comic book movie I have ever seen. The visuals were stunning and the over the top Noir dialogue was hilarious. The violence was very intense but highly stylized. I especially like the heroes, they were all very noble while at the same time their depravity was off the charts. The cast is absolutely amazing, and all of them do a top notch job. Especially Mickey Rourke & Bruce Willis.
Christians hated it, but summed it up nicely. (movieguide.org)

That statement was fairly tongue in cheek. It was pretty brutal, brutal enough to make even me cringe... and I think Fargo is hilarious. I'm not entirely sure how I feel about it exactly, the filmaking was incredible and for the most part the stories were cool, but a few things were just really over the top. I'm thinking specifically here of the canibblism, the removal of certian reproductive organs by hand, various scenes of torture, ect... This movie makes kill bill look like the A-team. The only other movie I've ever seen that was even close is Se7en.johnbryanpeters said:

Not directed by Tarantino either... When I find money, I'm going.TheInedibleHulk said:
Christians hated it? I'm a Christian and hate being grouped with those socially inept, sheltered, and ultra-conservative Christians; it drives me nuts. They basically throw away the entire new testament (which is about helping others), go back to the old one (which is about rules and covenants) and make a fuss when anything doesn't fall into its guidelines, making a terrible social impact and slandering the name of Christianity. Chances are I'll love the movie, but I haven't seen it yet.Tenchiro said:

This movie had great artistic talent driving the entire filming process. And besides sex, violence, it's all carnal primal shtuff. Heck i like a more realistic tear jerker like Million Dollar Baby too. but film can't always be banana's and carrots, you gotta have a bag of doritos once in a while.johnbryanpeters said:
This is a movie based on a violent comic book. Being a former collector i have to say that they did an excellent job transfering over Frank Millers vision into film.
Seems like they were able to get away with more violence using the black and white medium, such as what the case with Kill Bill 1 when the bride fought the crazy 88's at the club. It would have never passed the MPAA if the blood had been red not white as it appeared in the film.
What a great flick, i'm definately gonna see it again at Paul Allens Cinerama theater.
down right bizarro
Going to see it tonight.
I loved it. Charles Bronson is no longer the king.
Just try the old trick of walking in when everyone's flooding out from a movie. Sheesh kids these days.....mack said:Probably the latter!
Saw it. It was so tight. I didn't really follow it too well but it was def sweet. I need to see it again and concentrate harder.
it's a cryin shame Chuck Norris wasn't in it.T-Pirate said:

Rodriguez has film making skills.

Wow, just got back from it. Despite having homework I should be doing it was a SWEET movie!!!
First off, the cinematography is amazing, its such a cool idea for it to be all in black and white but have certain thigns in flagrant colors to stick out and be symbolic for different aspects of the story.
Second, the story is pretty fricken sweet, it's like a puzzle and you're handed different pieces of it throughout the movie, although it seems that there's several puzzles that weave into one... not at once.
Next, the women are all beautiful in little to no clothing (none a decent amount of time ) There's a hot asian girl that has mad skills with swords, its awesome.
Next, Elijah Wood's character freaked the sh1t out of me! He's this little midget that never says a word. And his glasses are really creepy. Everytime you see him the music turns to this sort of static hum.
All in all, this movie is definitely a STRONG R, with a plentiful of naked beautiful women, probably 50 people violently killed but surprisingly little harsh language. I'd recommend seeing it. I'm gonna buy it when its out.
