The previews don't make me want to watch it. I'll pass.

Not normally into these kind of movies, but this one looks really good; will probably check it out.

Going on Saturday hopefully. Been looking forward to this one for quite a while. Hopefully seeing The Goods on Sunday, as well. Decent movie weekend for the first time in a good while.

Definitely looks like a good flick. Of course I liked it the first time around as "Alien Nation."

This movie has been one I am dying to see more than any other since the trailers came out. Looks amazing and the storyline is refreshing!

My kind of movie.

Can't wait to see this... Supposedly great special affects, NOT pg-13, has a deeper meaning than the average special affects driven film... Should be good stuff
 

And if the Road Warrior says it, it must be true..

I saw it last night and loved it. It was the 2nd best movie I've seen this year behind The Hurt Locker.

thought it was stupid 4/10

at the end of the movie the people in the theater stood up and basically were saying what the fuck was that - major waste of time

good reviews written by the studio


hurt locker was so much better.

This is exactly what I thought after seeing it. Very overrated. And the way it ended has sequel(s) written all over it.

had very high hopes going in from all the reviews...
personally i thought it was a little over the top; not a movie I'd watch again but one that I'm probably glad I saw.
Not glad I spent $10 on popcorn though...I only ate like 1/4 of the bag. Got most of the butter though. and got a "free" coke with it so I guess I can't complain too much. but the sour patch kids were like $3.50, I was like fuck no. but she was cute so I almost said ok so she'd look at me again but I was a little late and I'm glad I hoofed it cuz the previews were actually pretty cool. except this one they played at the end that was gay.

i'm not a big sci-fi guy, i'll wait for the rental.

my sister and her BF went to the drive-in Fri night and said they watched the Exorcist, said Linda Blair was there signing autographs.
Said the 2nd movie was District 9, she said the beginning just didn't look promising so she took a nap and waited for the 3rd movie Orphan.

Saw it, great movie. Entertaining, well written, good plot. Great especial effects. Good social commentary regarding race issues and segregation that most here missed. Set in South Africa, classic locale.

I liked how the main character was a simple everyday nerd type who gets caught up and has to kick ass.

I'll see it again.
