Roommate bought it, and I have only seen about first 10 minutes. Daniel Day Lewis won an Oscar for it I think. Anyway, anyone seen it wanna fill us in on if it was good?
Update: Once again allowed on polk forums from work! New job yaaaay. Well sorta.

    Because I am at work, and cant at the moment. No one had made a review, so I figured we could get some talk going in this thread. I will watch it one of these days and probably just update the OP. Right now I'm more worried about watching the Indy's and then going to see new one in theatres.

    One of my favorite movies I've seen this year. Absolutely fantastic job by Daniel Day Lewis. I saw it twice and liked it even more the second time.


    Also, there are two other threads on this movie, here and here.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    It was ok at best. DDL was great the the movie, ho-hum and the music, nothing but a distraction. Glad I only borrowed it.
    If...
    Ron dislikes a film = go out and buy it.
    Ron loves a film = don't even rent.
