I wish I could have seen that interview. Maybe I'll try to find it on YouTube (probably not though, I don't like videos on the small screen and am not usually on a computer that can handle them anyway). I'd like to see what Bradley is like as a person instead of one of his characters.

I felt like DeNiro was barely in the movie. I know he is this huge star and all, but he's almost an afterthought for me when I think about Limitless.

Watched "Amelia" last night (about Earheart). The screenwriter might want to consider a new career. How can you take a movie about a woman with such an exciting life and compelling story, cast it with Hilary Swank, Richard Gere, and Ewan McGregor, and manage to turn it into a snoozefest of epic proportions? By 30 minutes into the movie I was looking forward to the inevitable conclusion.

Do not recommend. It's a maximum 2 out of 10.

Yep,I tried to watch Amelia but just couldnt get into it.
Im watching "Mildred Pierce" on HBO-I guess that falls under the movie category,its a mini series. I like it so far,Im surprised they could stretch it out to a 5 part mini series. Boy that Veda is a wretched little girl.The actress plays the part well.

I love Mildred Pierce (Joan Crawford's version), I will watch the HBO version when it is available online or on video. Glad to hear you like it, Lakecat!

I watched "Secretariat" just a little bit ago and really really liked it. I wish it was a bit more about the horse and the racing industry and a bit less about the owner, and of course I knew how it ended, but I really liked it anyway. I'm a sucker for a pretty horse.

I give my highest recommendation to the movie "Mother" by the director of "The Host"

The Lincoln Lawyer was great in my opinion. It didn't hurt that Marisa Tomei is hot.

I also enjoyed Lincoln Lawyer. It was well done.

If it comes to your theater see Win Win. It is a great movie.

I also saw Source Code this week. Did not want to see it but read outline of the film. It sounded good. Went to see it and enjoyed it.

No, I took Happymoms advice and will wait for dvd.

I saw the author of Lincoln Lawyer has a new book out about the lawyer...I would love another movie :-)

Saw "The Tourist." Two thumbs down. Do not recommend.

Saw "I Love You Phillip Morris." Liked it, but then again I like Jim Carrey and Ewan MacGregor. The two of them making out was a helluvalot sexier (and more believable) than Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie doing the same thing. I laughed out loud at the last shot of the movie. The rest of the movie is both poignent and humorous at times.

My sisters saw Arthur, they said it's a matinee movie at best. One or two hee-haws, but nothing great.

I agree with GAL re: Arthur. We (four of us) pd $6 each because it started before noon, one of those tickets was free because we had a coupon and I also had a coupon for free L popcorn and drink. So for $18 four of us saw the movie and had snacks and that's pretty much what it was worth. Had it moments, didn't stink but Brand can't touch Moore's performance and except for Mirren the rest of the cast was very forgettable.

I was really surprised Mirren took that part. She has become *very* Hollywood. Go for the bucks, damn the quality. Very disappointing. Same thing with DeNiro.

"Sunshine Cleaning" - do not recommend. 3/10 and that's only because Alan Arkin's in it (but not nearly enough). Amy Adams and Emily Blunt are good as per usual, but the story and script just aren't there.

I really liked the first Arthur too. I am not sure that I'll ever see this remake. I can't stand the icky Russell Brand.
