Just got back from seeing it. I liked it a lot. I thought it was quite good. Has anyone else seen it yet?

Asta!!

I saw it last weekend. I didn't love it, I didn't hate it. It was alright, but just felt like the same retread stuff. I don't know if it's just me expecting too much from movies, or if hollywood just isn't trying anymore. See it if this is your kind of movie, otherwise skip it.

i saw it the other night and thought it was pretty good. very intense movie, lots of violence and pretty creepy stuff. i'd say it's one of the best movies in the theatres right now, lot of shitty movies out.

Man, I couldn't have said it better myself. It seems like the studio's are in this continual Play-It-Safe mode. Where's the next Fight Club, Ronin, UnderWorld, or Pulp Fiction? Sheesh.

^ Apparently Sin City is gonna be the next Pulp Fiction.

Saw it two weeks ago, thought it was pretty mediocre. I mean, it's nice that Bruce Willis is making movies again, but even he can't rise above a bad script and an uninspired plot (which is the case here).

Bodyhammer86 - you hit the nail right on the head. Exactly....

Saw it yesterday, and it was about what one would expect from a piecemeal arrangement of "24"/Panic Room/Die Hard. And although ther were major plot holes and loose ends, I didn't hate it, and was not bored.

Spoiler: I really thought that they were going to be some go the "plot twist" route, and either say that Mars was somehow "in on it", instead of just a raving psycho, and/or that the "masked gunman" was going to be someone from the first scene. But they played it completely strait which is unusual these days. Oh and I also found it interesting/refreshing that none of the bad guys had to be killed more than once :)

Overall I'd say 6.5 out of 10
