    Epic Movie - 7/10 - The beginning wasn't all that great, but the movie got funnier as it went along. Not too shabby of a movie at all.

    Pan's Labyrinth - 9/10 - Spanish movie here, but a great movie. Very unique storyline, unlike most things I've seen from American films. Loved the movie from beginning to end.

    Good movie, not what I expected. The only downer in it? Nicolas Cage's acting.

    I saw Smokin Aces....started off promising....but then took itself too seriously at the end. You can't be a stylish film like that then twist and turn and try to drop a drama ending...didn't work for me.

    You should watch that documentary by those two French guys who came to the US to originally make a film about US firefighters. I forget the name, but if you haven't seen it, it is way better then the money making crap about 9/11. Those sick shits should be ashamed to make money off that disaster.

    Children of Men - 10/10

    This was probably the best movie I've seen in the past year and I can see why Clive Owen turned down Casino Royale to act in it. The director did a great job making parallels with contemperary political/social issues and some of the scenes were real powerful (when they walk through the soldiers). And, unlike Crash or V for Vendetta, it didn't come across as preachy. I highly recommend it.

    M what are you trying to say? It was a good movie and it portrayed the lives of two PAPD officers. It wasn't about 9/11 in general. I think it was very well done and very respectful.

    The Green mile - 10/10

    I have actually seen this movie several times before, but I just had to say this is by far the best movie ever made. Just gold.

    It was still made for money off of a disaster. This is the same problem with all of those WWII games coming out every few weeks. It may have come and gone, but these sickos are still making money off of the death and torment of others.

    Not really familiar with this latest one, but I found that "Flight 93" (or something) movie to be sickening. I agree with M, it's all just a cash grab. You knew that a month after the disaster, movie producers were thinking of when the timing was right to release a big budget, patriotic, tear-jerker.

    Hannibal Rising - had to go see it by myself, because all of my homies were busy......but it was definitely worth the lonely trip.......if you love Hannibal/Silence of the Lambs series (I'm a big fan myself) then you'll definitely enjoy this......I already knew about Hannibal's past (family being killed during WWII), but the movie did a really good job of laying out the plot, and young hannibal (whatever his name is) did good also (although he's not Anthony Hopkins...lol)

    These movies help people make sense of the events. By placing them in a storyline format, we get the context of how it happened and the big picture. This has gone on since forever.

    I think for 9/11 movies a lot of the money went to charity, not exactly sure. The war games are really just fictional stories based on the actual War, its not really a big deal, its entertainment. Some people are just entertained by war.

    Norbit- It was pretty funny, I give it a 7.8/10

    Good action movie, but the storyline was stupid.

    DREAM, I suggest you check this one out, your girl Alicia Keys is Smokin' Hot in it.
