Watched last night for the first time

Enjoyed it and thought it was well done. I wouldn't have voted it best picture or anything but very good


Had a boogie nights/pulp fiction feel to it for me.


Bale did a great job

Renner was very good as well. Probably his best performance, at least that I've seen.

I liked it when I saw it in theaters. I just watched it again this weekend too. Thought it was better the second time.

Agree, blows my mind how much people loved this movie.

Boring as frick.

I tried to like it, but literally turned it off midway through, which I never do.

Most new movies suck.

But I liked this one.

It was a little too show to start but overall it was a solid movie. Pretty solid acting all around.

Saw it with the wife and another couple when it was at the theater. I enjoyed it - they all thought it was horrible. Didn't think it deserved all the attention it received though.

Not at all, I enjoy slow paced movies.

This one was bad though.

Like I said, I tried to enjoy it, just couldn't do it.

Seems to be a pretty polarizing movie. I personally love it, Louis CK's ice fishing story was hilarious

We loved it. Saw it four or five times in the theater over the holidays.

Watched it again on cable recently.

Great movie.

It's good because of the cast but the story and pacing both blow.

Bale and Renner were good but I thought the rest of the performances were very overpraised.

Damn that movie was a pig with lipstick.

All sound and fury signifying nothing.

A fraud and phony show.

In 10 years, people will look back and realize - yeah, it sort of sucks - despite all the star power and glitz.

Best ensemble cast of the year, I thought, but the ending was meh.

Da fuq?

It isn't that great of a movie in my opinion. It was ok, but it isn't one that I'd want to see again.
