Superlatives fail me.

Wow.

See it.

I've never seen anything like it.

Simply.

Stunningly.

Amazingly.

Wonderful.

I've been wanting to see this since I saw a trailer for it quite a while ago. Not playing in my area, however. Uhhg. I heard it was getting a wide release on Jan 5th. Is this true does anyone know?

I hope so. It's so effing good.

the camera work blew my mind specially that car scene and the long one take shot at the end. I also loved it.

Forget A Touch of Evil - this blew that famous shot away

I tended to forget the shots were never-ending, because they just flowed so naturally. Truly amazing. The car shot too... it went all the way from the egg at the beginning through to the police. I think...

I'm not sure I would take it as far as Perry did, but it was a cool concept and worth seeing for the cinematography and production design alone.

They mounted a rig inside the car, TD. U can see how they did it in the making off. The car scene alone was a masterpiece.You forget where the camera is and it feels like you are inside the car. The war scene is a one Shot reminiscence of saving private ryan. Beautiful cinematography. ALfonso also did a nice 5 min steadycam shot in his paris j´aime short film.

I hard my girlfriend ready to go with me, I take her to all the good movies because my friends don't really "like" the same movies as me. Turns out it was only playing in 16 theaters in the US, so I'll have to wait until next weekend...

16 screens!? Wow. No wonder I could only find it at Boston Common.

Well, he lives out in Western Mass, in a town which wishes it were Boston.

i just now get to go see it ( midnight showing) i cant wait eather , you guys got me all excited about this one, and i hope you dont steer me whrong cuz that would be very very very mean

Seeing this in 2 hours. Very excited.

Wow. That's the best film I've seen in quite a long time.

it was worth every penny frikin A+ movie

Great film.

It truly was fantastic, I am literally stunned. I was speechless when I walked out of the theatre; it was so real; the filming was incredible which aided to the rich script. Also, the acting was great, there wasn't that one character that was crappy that ruined the entire thing, which was good. Simply Great.

I was slightly disspointed with Children of Men- I came in expecting a lot, but in the end it didn't seem very innovative- also, for those who have seen Blood Diamond (much better than I had expected btw) they seem very similar- I don't want to give any part of it away, but I couldn't help thinking I had just seen the same movie...
