I'm not a huge fan of K. Reeves, but then again, who is?

I still think this movie will be good, however.
Any one see it yet?
How was it?
Should I even bother?


He is in another sci fi film comming soon. I cant remember the name, but it's animated like 'Waking LIfe'.

It doesnt look very good.

Just saw it today. If you're into sci-fi that deals with religion, you'll have a good time. It reminded me of End of Days except it was much more interesting.

Yeah, it doesn't look good, but most every review I have read says that it is very surprising in that it is actually decent.

Besides, Rachel Weisz dude. Nuff said.

"A Scanner Darkly," and I have high hopes that this might be the first movie adaptation of a Philip K. Dick book that is actually an adaptation of a Philip K. Dick book.

Plus, he's in Thumbsucker with Vince Vaughn, and that was filmed at my high school :)

She didn't look that good on Letterman. It must have been the hair.

We saw the movie last night and I was skeptical going in because of all the reviews, but I wanted to see it anyway because I like the whole subject it deals with(fallen angels, the occult references).

I actually liked it a lot. I thought it was interesting and plenty of fabulous visuals. Although some caused me to put my popcorn aside for the remainder of the film.

And yeah, ditto on Rachel Weisz. I think she's gorgeous and I usually like her onscreen. She's got one of the more interesting faces in film.

Keanu wasn't that bad in the film either, pretty decent. And I was surprised that Gavin Rossdale was pretty good too. It took me a while to realize that was who it was. It drove me nuts for a while trying to figure out who the hell was playing Balthazar.

Picked this up today for a mere $3 and dug it for the most part. Not a faultless film by any means, but I really liked the story.

A question for all you comic people: What graphic novel should I start with? I missed the boat on this back when I was still collecting/reading comics, and now I'm mad that I did so. I know the writing in the gn's are probably much much better than the film, so I'd like to check them out.

I liked this movie. Came upon it late night one night on HBO and ended up watching the whole thing. Keanu likes saving people in movies.

I was hesitant about this film originally, but I thought the story was wonderful. Great plot. Great acting...or at least as much as you can expect from Keanu Reeves. I own it. I was pleasantly surprised when I saw it.

Really enjoyed the plot & theme of this one. Gavin Rossdale was surprisingly good.
