i wanted to learn more on the story of united flight 93. i can't stop watching this movie. i love Jamie Harding in this movie. i wil never forget 9-11-01

Lots of energy & excitement in this look behind the scenes at an ace marching band's percussion/drum section. Actual marching band percussionists, however, have told me it's inaccurate fantasy in terms of how one guy manages to rise to the top of his section without even being able to read musical notation (he learns solely thru imitation). "Not gonna happen & doesn't happen" the *real* drumline folks tell me.

I hate this film. This is one of the worst I have seen. I saw it 6 years ago when it came out. It was bad then because of the technology/early cgi. If you work in a retail store and someone wants to buy "Robots," give it to them for free - they shouldn't have to pay for it! This is a big fat WOOF!!

This is one of Michelle Pfeiffer's and Sean Penn's best movies. Dakota Fanning is great too. Don't miss it!

Vikings were known to be vicious, but fighting dragons? This story will give you a taste of what its like to train a dragon, not that you'll ever need it...I think.

I loved this movie and dreamworks did a great movie.I think that movie is still # 1 in the boxoffice

I know what you?re thinking; another mass produced meaningless Hollywood CGI movie, made on a tight budget and released to coincide with a TV show and a line of action figures. I thought the same thing, in fact I had not even heard of How to Train Your Dragon until a few days before its premier. I?m very glad that I did not pass this one by; it is not a film to miss. A small Viking village sits on an island in the middle of the sea; this village has a serious dragon problem. The pests raid the tiny village, destroying houses and steeling livestock. A young Viking by the name of Hiccup who not only has the unfortunate name of Hiccup but is of an abnormally small stature for his clan, he is relegated to fetch work, to small and weak to assist in the defense of his home. Hiccup desires to be like his heroic father, and uses his knowledge of machinery to construct a device to capture a dragon. His invention succeeds but when it comes time to strike the killing blow, proving himself to his clan, he hesitates, unable to murder the creature. Instead he befriends the crippled dragon in secret, learning that these great enemies are not what they have been made out to be. The Computer Animation is of the highest quality, impressively rendering the massive hairy beards and fur coats of the Viking warriors. Seriously some of the most impressive technically and colorful CGI I have ever witnessed. The many battle scenes and the wonderful character animations are extremely impressive. A vibrate technical achievement. Very well done voice acting, by a well-rounded attractive cast, of particular note was Gerard Butler as Stoick the Vast; the perfectly voiced, gruff but affable Viking chieftain, and Craig Ferguson as the hilarious Gobber the Belch; a drill sergeant, constantly dispensing bad advice and witty remarks. The team at DreamWorks Animation and directors Dean DeBlois and Chris Sanders have crafted a great movie, a technical showpiece and filled with wonderful fantasy storytelling. I loved this film; I loved the delightful characters, the funny dialog, and their electrifying exploits. It exemplifies everything I love about animated films; it frees the filmmaker from the logistics of live action, no though of sets or cameras, the only thing holding them back is imagination. How to Train Your Dragon is not only among the best of animated films, it is one of the best pure fantasy movies in memory; an enchanting, lighthearted adventure.

Yes, I'd even take it over the first 'Shrek'. Fun, funny and frenetic, with beautiful and unique animation, 'Kung Fu Panda' still doesn't hold a candle to the very best of Pixar ('WALL·E' so trounces this movie), but of the slew of CGI movies we've seen this millennium, 'Kung Fu Panda' is one of the better ones.

Both of the first two 'Ice Age' movies are pretty equal in my mind; I give 'The Meltdown' just a bit of an edge, because the animation is just that much better.

It's obvious they started this movie with the visual ideas (as they state they did in the DVD extras). They came up with this world--which is absolutely, mind-bogglingly, beautifully rendered in the film--and then hung a paper-thin plot on it. The voice cast is pretty good (minus Halle Berry, who is just bland), but the visuals definitely stick with you longer than any of the story elements.

http://braidedthreads.blogspot.com/2008/09/bourne-again.html ... This film promises to reaveal much of what has been hidden through the series--enough to satisfy us, and bring some things full circle. It reemphasizes some of Bourne's culpability in the ruthless person he became, and gives him the chance, if not to redeem himself, at least to be able to grow into someone different. He shows considerable restrain in this movie, as if to hold back the machinery of Bourne-the-killer, who is able to act violently without regret or remorse. He is both capable of violence, and capable of choice, and it is fascinating to watch the intersection of these dual impulses.

In order to be really special, you need to have super powers. Everyone else in the world is a chump. Just ask Hayden C - or any of the characters he's ever played. But according to this movie, if you become too special, people will want to kill you. This action film is diverting enough. The overly produced jumping effects create a bit more confusion than they need to. I spent most of the action sequences trying to figure out what just happened - I gave up on trying to figure out what was happening while it was happening. There is some fun in there. I see potential for a Jumper television series. Not a series I would want to watch, but the mythology of this story leaves room for more exploration. It is only a matter of time... and space... or both... or something.

Action, humor and Brangelina...what more could you ask for?

This movie holds up to the hype. A good fight scene between Brad and Angelina is worth the price of admission.

How is this for an ultimatum.. give me my money back or else!! Unfortunately I am not sure who to hold accountable for this mess. I can't blame Damon he is like the obidient dog that sits under the table waiting for scraps. I can't blame Julie Stiles for toally being mis-cast (note to Julie, stick to bad dance movies from not on). Guess I have to blame myself for seeing this. Guess I owe myself some money.

Kids will love this one; grownups will too!

I knew this movie would make me cry, but I don't remember the last time I practically sobbed through a whole film. I would watch this again, if only to forward to Jeffrey Dean Morgan with an Irish accent!
