I'm torn about whether I want to see this in the theatre or not. It was partially filmed right outside my office building and I think I would spend too much time going "that's the A&R Building, that's the Madden Building, look what they did to the Ren Cen..." I think I'll wait for video so I can pause and dissect where they're shooting.

I'm trying not to give too much away, but I'm guessing only a small part of the movie would have been filmed in front of any one area, Tasha. I loved the film, it really kept up the action. And of course anything with Ewan McGregor is fine by me! Go see it Tasha :-).

The Island didn't fare too well at the b.o :-(

I want my two hours back. Even seeing Ewen couldn't salvage this slop.

OK..."slop" was too harsh. I really liked Ewen because I always do. Scarlett Johansson is pretty. It's so riddled with cliches I always knew what was going to happen. It had nice special effects. It was better, at least, than Fantastic Four, and it had more talent.

Was it at all enjoyable to see uber-bad guy Sean Bean or should I wait for his next film?

Reiki, he's really wasted in this thing. On the other hand, Djimon Hounsou [sp?] is in it, too, and no film with him and Ewan can be all bad.

How much is Steve Buscemi in this film? I'll probably eventually rent it to see him.

Maybe 20-30 minutes total, Brenda, off and on. He's not quite as weird as in his usual parts but is a good supporting character.
