    40,001 thanks to your post. Way to throw the entire universe into chaos.
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore

    Saw the midnight premiere tonight and I am still beaming with joy. I had built up the movie so much in my head, watched every trailer they released on the film and still was blown away.

    Everything is completely over the top, the Vis FX are fantastic, the cinematography is phenomenal (same guy who did Night/Daywatch) and beefy, crazy sound design.

    This is definitely not a movie to be taken seriously but my god is it fun! (Think cinematic junk food.) If you are an action flick junkie absolutely go see this one and make sure you see it in a theater with great picture and sound!

    I completely agree. If you want a good summertime fun action flick, go see Wanted. And seeing it in a theater with good sound and PQ, is also helpful. I enjoyed the movie but found the sound in the theater a bit light. I hope the Blu-ray in my home theater does it justice when released.

    Yeah the theater I went to really lacked in the sound department. I'm going to buy this one on Blu ray when it gets out as it should kick **** at home.

    I am sorry to hear about the sound in the theaters you saw the movie in. :(

    The theater I went to was just opened a couple months ago and the sound was contracted to Meyer Sound so it absolutely slaughtered anything I had ever heard in a theater.

    The movie flat out rocked! I had very low expectations going in, but it was simply a fantastic ride! Just a great popcorn flick. Unrealistic for sure, but you won't regret anything about this film.

    Best action movie i've seen in a long time. Loved it!

    We watched "Wanted" tonight. It was a disappointment.

    And Jolie should order some extra fries. She's skelatonous.

    ^ Ditto.

    Just finished up the Blu-ray. Fantastic ride of a movie, provided everything I expected it to and more. Can't wait to watch it again. Tha A/V is outstanding.

    Talk about one kick **** ride of a movie. The audio and video of this movie was spectacular. I'll be taking it for another ride sometime Friday when nobody is home so I can enjoy it with no interruptions. Definitely a reference Blu-Ray in my opinion.

    Hell, DTS-HD MA kicks Dolby's ****, hands down, against the curb, around the corner and down the street. These lossless tracks are so night and day different over lossy it's amazing.
