Well done visually, great in-jokes for those who grew up with 1950's era space/atomic age classics.

Quite funny, but somehow I expected more from Pixar.
The movie was made by Dreamworks,not Pixar,BTW.Dreamworks animation division always seems several steps behind,dont they?

DW does seem to be a bit behind the curve. Technically, they are great but could a bit of work on their ideas. Pixar had "A Bug's life", DW had "Antz", a sorry imitation. ...and the beat goes on.

Wyatt Earp with Kevin Costner. Watched Tombstone a few weeks ago and always like watching the two pretty close together, love 'em both.

Barry Lyndon, loved it at times but the ending was blah and I didn't appreciate the voice over telling me what was about to happen all the time.

CONTROL

The story of Ian Curtis and Joy Division.

Good film, horrible story.

The Caller with Frank Langella and Elliot Gould. Mediocre film. Waste of talent.

I don't recall the last movie that I watched...
I think it was "The Haunting" ? Or something like that..
It was okay, I guess..

In the Valley of Elah.

Tommy Lee Jones as a retired military police officer looking for his AWOL son and/or his killer(s). Close to true story. 'Nuff said.
