Only knew about Robot and Frank because of NPR, they did an interview with the main actor. Really great interview, if you see the movie I suggest seeking out the interview.

I didn't think Gangster Squad was as bad as it's rating would suggest on Rotten Tomatoes. One critic went as far as to say Penn's character was cartoon-like. I didn't see that.

I didn't think Gangster Squad was anywhere near as bad as it's Rotten Tomatoes rating would suggest. I liked Gosling's, Emma Stone's, and Penn's roles. One critic went as far as to say Penn's character was cartoon like. I didn't see that.

Agreed, as I mentioned earlier, this is one instance where I disagreed with the low rating on RT. I liked the movie and thought some of the characters were well done.

Has anyone mentioned this movie yet? Saw a preview for the first time before Django last night.

Django was sweet.

I posted it a few pages back. It looks interesting.

Just got back from "Mama". Despite the favorable reviews, I thought it was corny as hell. It had a few of those "cat jumping out of the cabinet" type scares, but other than that....very lame.

That blows. I was expecting more. I guess I shouldn't be shocked after his last horror flick.

I just didn't see anything funny in the trailer. I guess it's possible they didn't put the funny stuff in the previews.

Watched that a couple days ago myself, loved it as well. Just watched The House At The End Of The Street. It wasn't too bad either.

Watched 'Silver Linings Playbook' last night. Pretty good.

I'm now in love with Jennifer Lawrence

7% on Rotten Tomatoes doesn't bode well. What Wayans movie is good?

Don't Be a Menace and parts of Scary Movie 1 & 2 were funny. Other that that I'm not a big fan.

Yeah, I didn't expect much out of it. I guess Mama is stomping Broken City and Last Stand at the box office.
