Yet another movie that has the biggest talent in town doesn't do well at the box office.  Though hardly surprising with the date of release so late in summer, the studio had pretty low expectations on this one.  Saw the trailer and it was entertaining to me, not quite the crap others see it to be.  And the list of talent is impressive.  But the premise just rings hollow for me.

Last night my wife and I watched Letters to Juliet (yeah, a chick flick) but at least it had some dimensionality to the characters.  When is Hollywood going to release their is an audience hungry for good characters and make fewer movies for 9 year olds and arrested 9 year olds.

I can wait for C&A to hit the local redbox before seeing it, I'm afraid.

I enjoyed it.

At least they did a good job of making a Western first, i.e. it was a Western that incorporated a sci-fi, not a sci-fi that incorporated a Western.

Did it just suck or did it suck hard? I ask because i was interested in seeing it. And it was the #1 movie in America right now. Need an honest feedback. :-)
