Does anybody on Yahoo Answers actually have good taste in movies? Is there anybody else that appreciated film as a highly innovative and interesting art form, or does everybody just want cheap, commercial entertainment?

This Movie is amazing.\n\nI first watched it in 1996 in a D.C. theatre. \n\nI realy suggest everyone watch it, it's interesting that you liked it too. \n\nI've looked it up though and it's "not in stock".\n\nStrange.

Well I like the movies.  But I long for something original and creative.  All Hollywood does is  redo the same thing over and over from comic books to video games.  It's  all about the money and not creativity.

I base movies/musicals based solely on my enjoyment of them.  It has to be entertaining and a good story, otherwise its not gonna be a favorite.  As an aside - I definitely agree about Wicked - I LOVE it (both because I enjoyed the story and that I saw it for the first time with my best friend.)

Yeah i saw it! But i don't know what you're looking for exactly, a review?!! summary?!! or what? So i'm just gonnna tell you what i thought of it .. \nIt was a nice experience because its not like every other romantic comedy we usually see, the story is weird in a way which is what made the movie interesting, a bit funny, and gives a different perspective on love and marriage ...

I liked it a lot.  A somewhat similar type of movie that will be coming to video soon is called "Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang".  Not quite the same since there's no a-ha moments quite like Slevin, but very good.  Very Pulp Fictionish.  I recommend it.  And with a title like that it's hard to forget.  :)

It was ok to rent a dvd esp. since i have a kid at home. However i would not go to a movie theater to watch it.\nI also think animators  did a very good job , however , for some reason the faces of all the characters were ugly. \n i recommend this film to anyone from 6 to 13 ...

Whew-- Here's a question to all those who post about religious folks and non-religious folks... Are we ever going to settle this? Yeah didn't think so.\nStill I commend Wrathpuppet and the more thoughtful responders by espousing their beliefs in as clear a manner as possible, and Schneb- That's got to be one of your shorter replies, kudos on the mutual respect.\n\nI'm going to shy away from a grandiose analogy, for a simpler one that might still fit.\n\nEver went to see a movie the day it came out, was blown away by it, and when you told your friends they needed to see it, and right away, they blew you off? Ya know like they'd heard bad reviews, or just didn't think the material was something they were interested in. But it's killing you because you love and respect these people and you wish them to share in this wonderful cinematic experience... and you're sure if they would just take the time and go, they'd thank you for it later? ** to carry this theme out... it's not that you believe these folks (that you're trying to tell about this great movie) have never seen a good picture before or that they couldn't discover it on their own, it's just that it was SO good for you, SO moving, SO vital, that you really believed if they never saw it, their life would not be as rich as if they had.\n\nShortest answer possible, they think they're doing you a favor or a kindness, you may already have an interesting life that has happiness in it, but they fear for your eternal happiness. \n\nI for one will leave each to their own, and only try an help the ones who say they are unhappy or in some need, and the answer from me rarely will have religious overtones. \n\nMy God is just love. Wrath, judgement, the need to be worshipped and obeyed are the attributes of other's Gods. \n\nThe afterlife does not hold auditions.

But I actually didn't see it until much later after it was made and I was mesmerized! Loved it. (Is that considered live action with a cowboy theme? lol)

I'm a fan. I'm more of a fan of the book, but the film was handled (I thought) fairly well. Some critics didn't like it, but I suspect those critics hadn't even bothered reading the book. The acting was good, particularly on Depp's part.

There are several scenes that by themselves are so good thatthey are worth price of admission, so yes. Hope you see it. I highly doubt you'll be disappointed.

Wow..!! sounds like a nice concept..we can take a movie out of it !! Good Story line..\n\nBut how do we interact with the Non-Existent People ?  Shoud we keep our Mind open for that ??  Because I have often heard some saying.. those who believe in Ghosts can only see them.. - If that is the solution..  To go to a past.. do we have to just keep searching for open Minds ? or Can the Time Travel Concept be corolated with the Open-Mind Concept ..   \n\n- I wanted to get some best answers.. and finally ended up in having so many questions :)

Unfortunately it's not a good movie as what we expected.\nThe cast, the figures are all excellent. But It's not a successful movie. If the movie was really or much more sharp story as the teeth of aliens and the razor of predators, I think I can raise my two thumbs up!\nBut AVP only good in comic for the story...I collect them all from Action figures till comics.\nIf there is another sequel to come for the next AVP2, I am looking forward to watch it.

I have not seen this film, but two of my friends have seen it and they liked it very much - these friends are big fans of classical music. So, if you love classical music, probably you will enjoy this film. I read the entire New York Times review and there is no mention of other classical works. I think the film is really just about Beethoven working on his 9th Symphony.\n\nThis is from the New York Times review of Copying Beethoven:\n\nThe presentation of the Ninth is reason alone to see the film. Onscreen is the Kecskemet Symphony Orchestra of Hungary, but what we hear is a 1996 Decca recording of Bernard Haitink conducting the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra of Amsterdam. Purists may object to this strategy, but Ms. Holland's filmmaking in this scene is so sensitive that only quibblers will notice if the bowing doesn't match the sound. With her cinematographer, Ashley Rowe, and editor, Alex Mackie, she orchestrates bursts of images and metronomic camera pans that become a visual counterpoint to the music's propulsive and flowing tempos, its rushing violins and soaring voices. Every so often the camera focuses on one of Beethoven's hands, the fingertips stirring the air as if rustling the notes. The world falls away, blissfully.
