I thought it was an OK movie.  It was cute, humorous, quirky in some parts.  It has a deeper meaning though, in my opinion.\nWe're always trying to fast forward through life, without savoring each moment we DO have with our loved ones.  He was lucky, he got a second chance.....because it was a dream.\nWe don't.  So don't waste your lives focusing & worrying about work, etc!!!  There's SO much more!!!

I saw it on Saturday. It was okay. Vince Vugh looked really fat and I liked Jennifer Aniston in this movie. I don't really like her in other movies.  Yes it was funny, yes, you want to shout at the couple how stupid they are. The ending, all I can say without spoiling it is some people will like it and some people won't. \n\nBottom line:\nif you miss it in the movies, don't worry about it, the DVD will be fine. The only reason why I think it was so big it's opening weekend, is because it was raining on tje east coast and no one really went out that night.

I agree and disagree with the use above I would have taken my kids without checking that yahoo's movie list ( half I hardly agree with ) if a local dj had not pointed out how horrible it really is.... then I looked it up. I will not take my kids to see that. It seems like the old bait and switch. Lure the kiddies to beg mommy and daddy to see a cute penguin movie then BAM nothing like you expect.\nI am glad someone else noticed it for the garbage it is.\n\noh and the first user.. we should not GET OVER IT as you said this is a movie advertised for children not adults. If it was marketed as a adult movie then it would be fine.

This film is crap! Sorry but dont waste your money!  My friend (in the photo) went to see it and the whole film is based on just two people, the girl is all mouth - she keeps saying she is gonna castrate the fella - and just keeps threatening, its like "just bloody do it ok"!\n\nIts a ok film for a boring night in, but not worth a trip to the pictures.

I thought it was a great movie. If political correctness is your thing then this movie is not for you.  Definitely worth the price of admission.

I saw it a while ago. Very funny, we laughed a lot. Nothing sensational, but if you're looking for a good entertaining time, you should def see it.

I'm glad to see someone else interested in this film!  I've actually heard really good things about it, and i just bought it.  I'm planning on watching it later today based on all the reviews I read, which were very favorable.  On IMDB (which I consider to be a very very good resource for film info), they gave it an average rating of 7.3 out of 10.  \n\nOne of the reviewers made this comment:\n"Without revealing too much of the story, Elijah Wood's character gets kicked out of Harvard for a drug offence he didn't commit. He flies to London to visit his sister and quickly gets caught up in a small group of West Ham United supporting hooligans called the Green Street Elite.\n\nThe film does slightly glamorise the violence, but ends on a moralising note. An engaging storyline, good cinematography and decent cast performances make this a very enjoyable film."\n\nAnyway, I don't know just how violent it is yet, and it's fiction after all, but I'm really looking forward to watching it.  I'll give you an update after I've seen it.  Also, have you seen Football Factory??  Here's a snippet from the summary: "The Football Factory is more than just a study of the English obsession with football violence, its about men looking for armies to join, wars to fight and places to belong."\n\nI figure if I like Green Street Hooligans I might like Football Factory, so I might get that one, too.\n\nHere's a link for Green Street Hooligans:\nhttp://www.imdb.com/title/tt0385002/\n\nHere's one for Football Factory:\nhttp://www.imdb.com/title/tt0385705/

Well, sorry, this movie is not on at the cinemas right now, but I recently rented the DVD, The Notebook.  \n\nI watched it about eight times within that week, bought the DVD and the book.\n\nThis is the first time ever that I have had any interest in watching a movie more than once.\n\nIt is a very beautiful, romantic movie that takes place in the south about 50 or 60 years ago.\n\nYou will love the two main characters.\n\nIf you haven't already seen this movie, I highly recommend it, more than I have ever recommended a movie.  \n\nIt is a sentimental movie and humorous at the same time. Although it has just a few slow parts, I rate this movie with five stars.  You have to watch it, and let me know how you liked it, please.

all right... it was a very painful movie, not because it's boring and not good at all but because it was so powerful you'd feel real pain watching some scenes in the movie. it's also directed by the great miike (he's seen in the movie hostel!).\n\nhere goes. this man just lost his wife and his son's actually okay with the idea of his dad being remarried again. he held an audition but that was a front - because he really wanted to meet the girl he would want to marry through this, so he met this girl. but it turned out that this girl had a very dark past and led him into something really painful. painful is just the right term for all of this. anyway, i don't want to tell you all the details. i suggest you try to find a copy of this movie and watch it. trust me, it's good. :)

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.

It was a good movie.    The movie was done well.  There was more too it than just another war movie.  It mixed in romance, drama, and action all into one movie. \n  I an not one who watches love stories especially if it is suppose to be about one of the things that took us into WWII.  But I do agree with you.

I do not think I could roll my eyes back down long enough to watch it. But I will proabbly rent it just for fun.\n\nSeriously, though, I do like the way the girls look strong and healthy in the movie. There is way too much overly thin, dangerously thin, role models for our young women.

I loved it.\n\nI've heard that even people who never saw the movie "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" also liked it.

This movie was a beautifully created film.  The cinematography alone made it well worth the cost of a ticket.  The costuming was beautiful, artful and relatively authentic.  As long as you are/were willing to sit through the length of the movie, it was very well done.\n\nI do agree that the use of a Chinese actress versus a Japanese actress was not the brightest call, but unfortunately, most Americans really don't recognize the differences (very sad, but also true.)\n\nI loved the story, though now that I have it on DVD, I tend to skip over the beginning where she's a child (except for the flavored ice scene - it's just beautiful).  I really love watching the development of the characters.\n\nWhile a lot of people think it isn't worth renting over and over again, let alone owning, I see it as a beautiful rendition of a lost part of history.  And to think - the book was written by a man! Go figure!

Maybe down the line, but the best thing to do is just buy it when it comes out. That is just what my mom and I have been doing. That way we can take our time watching it and pause it or rewind if we have to. It's great!
