Well I guess nobody really gives a shit about this... except for me.

I saw it tonight... it was kinda good. The acting was great. Crudup and Wilkinson were excellent. Mandy is not the greatest actress but I love her anyhow.

Film is pretty good... not sure why nobody saw it... and its not even getting a decent limited run.

i saw a screener of this a few months ago.  i thought it was one of the most obnoxious movies i've ever seen.
Christopher Nolan's directive was clear to everyone in the cast and crew: Use CGI only as a last resort.

:doh: from that trailer you're right....which sucks b/c its my wet dream's directorial debut w/crudup...it seems like its one of those annoying off the wall romantic indie drama-comedies (of the garden state variety) ...rather than the good shit like the eternal science's of recent memory...but i hope i'm wrong...and whats with that annoying record skipping noise throughout the trailer?

wait till you hear it throughout the whole movie! that's dedication to a bit.

that bothered me a little bit... and as much as i agree with some of what was said here, i enjoyed it and thought it was well done. then again, there is so much shit out there that is no difficult to enjoy this more than 99% of the rest...
