2. Sci fi as Cowboys in space
with super visual special effects.

3. The people I know didn't really care about the Sci Fi aspect.
They thought the plot and dialog were boring, and the movie in general was overdone.

4. I enjoyed the movie.
Saw it in Imax 3d and it was very cool. Kind of Dances with Wolves in space, but that's been over used by now.

5. The movie is worthwhile only
Edited on Wed Dec-30-09 01:09 AM by msatty99
for the special effects. Otherwise, it's a corny "indians are good" "white man bad" story. See the review by
my friend 'Goliath'

7. Well of course, don't you know it's tanking badly and word of mouth is killing it
at the box office. It's on the road to being one of the biggest bombs in cinematic history. :nuke: :bounce:

Of course even if everyone considers a dish to be the food of the gods there will be someone who claims it tastes like dog shit, which makes you wonder how they know what dog shit tastes like. :shrug:

8. Yeah. Decaprio wasn't convincing as Howard Hughes.
Cate Blanchett was good.

...what? Never mind....
