I thought that the special effects were good, but the rest of the movie was pretty bad. My son was the only one who liked it. I suspect that going to see 10,000 BC would be a similar experience for us, so I will wait until this movie is available for rental. Judging by it's bad reviews, it won't be long before this movie is on dvd.
You got me on the money issue. There's no doubt about that. It sucks.

Well, that was my point. I can imagine he was fairly grateful. Was every movie you were taken to as a child a completely satisfying experience for your escorts?

With that many voices, a consensus is probably pretty rare. What about this...take your son to a matinee and let your wife and daughters stay home and watch DIRTY DANCING or FATHER OF THE BRIDE or rent some Hugh Grant 'comedy'. Consider it bonding. He'll look back fondly on your 'sacrifices' later when he's wiping the pureed peas from your chin in the nursing home.
