    I loved the movie. Absolutely loved it. Bought it for my girlfriend for Christmas. I liked that it is a slow moving piece, long movies are treats if they are good movies.

    I watched it until he finally opened up about what happened - I got so emotional being a NY'er that I couldn't watch the remainder of the movie - got too upset - know too many people who died that day.

    Is it as depressing as Click? Talk about being caught off guard... that movie started out funny and then for some reason turned into one of saddest movies I've seen. I try to stay away from those movies, but he tricked me:o
    Whoa, chill bro... you know you can't raise your voice like that when the lion's here.

    Have you seen punch drunk love?

    that is a great movie...I like Adam Sandler in Spanglish too...but Love, Reign over Me...was a little too sappy. I liked the movie, for the most part...but there was time when I got anxious...I get anxious at overdone sentimentality.

    seriously??

    I hum out loud and tap my fingers...which is unfortunate when someone is making a wedding toast. (seriously.) I have tried to stop doing that...but nothing I do seems to work...it's not like I am doing it on purpose...on my brother's wedding video you see/hear me doing that! also, I puff out my cheeks.

    Loved it. Maybe because I went in to it thinking it would be mediocre at best.

    pretty much my opinion as well.

    peace,

    The world is like a ride in an amusement park, and when you choose to go on it you think it's real because that's how powerful our minds are. The ride goes up and down, around and around, it has thrills and chills, and it's very brightly colored, and it's very loud, and it's fun for a while. Many people have been on the ride a long time, and they begin to wonder, "Hey, is this real, or is this just a ride?" And other people have remembered, and they come back to us and say, "Hey, don't worry; don't be afraid, ever. Because this is just a ride." And we...kill those people. "Shut him up! I've got a lot invested in this ride, shut him up! Look at my furrows of worry, look at my big bank account, and my family. This has to be real." It's just a ride. But we always kill the good guys who try and tell us that, you ever notice that? And let the demons run amok? But it doesn't matter, because it's just a ride. And we can change it any time we want. It's only a choice. No effort, no work, no job, no savings of money. Just a simple choice, right now, between fear and love. The eyes of fear want you to put bigger locks on your doors, buy guns, close yourself off. The eyes of love instead see all of us as one. Here's what we can do to change the world, right now, to a better ride. Take all that money we spend on weapons and defenses each year and instead spend it feeding and clothing and educating the poor of the world, which it would pay for many times over, not one human being excluded, and we could explore space, together, both inner and outer, forever, in peace.

    I just watched it the other day and I really was moved by it.
    For anyone who hasn't seen it...not for the depressed of heart. Oh my.
    I thought Don Cheadle and Adam Sandler were awesome together. It was so refreshing to see such a different side of Sandler's talent. He truly knocked me out. I think maybe alot of that is due to the fact that I didn't expect it.
    Oh, and to hear Bruce singing Out in the Street...:)
    I know alot of people complained that it just kept going on and on...but I wanted that..I needed to see what happened.
    And Donald Sutherland was awesome...though the guy from the Office did not fit...

    i saw it and loved it.

    "Quadrophenia change my life"

    Loved the movie
    I just don't trust anything that bleeds for five days and doesn't die.

    i liked it a hell of a lot more than i thought i was going to. sandler excells in this one.

    another one of my favorite sandler movies was 'punchdrunk love'. completely surprised me when i saw that one. was not expecting him to have a role like that.
