Anyone seen it? I heard from a friend it's good...

It seems like an interesting topic.

I don't like what they turned Natalie Portman into. They took a beautiful, talented young actresss and made her look like Demi Moore in GI Jane.

No comment on the actual movie. I'll rent it when it's at the video store. Doesn't look strong enough to actually go out and pay 7.50 to see in the theatre.

I almost went to see it this weekend. But the wife and I decided that going to see a movie just to be going to see a movie was a waste of time and money.

While we're bashing movies, I finally caught Walk the Line this weekend on DVD. I was very disappointed. Joaquin Phoniex is not a very talented actor, and an even less talented vocalist. He was really stretching himself. It didn't bother me that he didn't sound like Johhny Cash, it was just that he sounded like a drunk down at karoke night trying to sound like Johhny Cash when he was trying to sound like Johhny Cash (whew!). And I never realized Cash sounded like Mongo from Blazing Saddles when he talked.

Reese Witherspoon was nominated for an Oscar in the Best Actress catagory for the role of June Carter. I can't remember if she won, but she really saves the movie from totally jumping the shark. Ironically she has a much better singing voice than June Carter.

The movie is like a really long, more boring episode of Behind the Music. The writers over-emphasized Cash's drug addiction. The best days of his career were after he went clean. The movie abruptly comes to a screeching halt sometime in 1968-69 before Cash's success with his TV show or his "comeback" in the 90's.

And "Sunday Morning Coming Down" wasn't even on the soundtrack.

I 100% agree.

Ironically, a buddy of mine thought that Natalie Portman looked really hot with the shaved head even though he thought Demi Moore looked like a dike. I haven't seen it yet. If we are discussing her looks, she looks more like a chick that you'd marry than a chick you'd just nail. I've already got a chick trying to marry me, and that's already too many!

Hell yeah I'd marry her. She's the whole package. Not only does she look good, but she's also a Harvard graduate.

And she's full of unfertilized Jedi eggs.

Dude, I'm rolling. I really am laughing out loud!
