RIGHT NOW. i skipped work to go see it and it was totally worth it. Its a great movie but the ending leaves something to be desired. Everyone will love the movie, but im sure alot of people will split on the way it ended.

ANYWAYS go see it, its the best movie to come along in quite some time

yeah, I'm planning to see it. I first saw the trailer about 2 weeks ago when I went
to see Jet Li's "Fearless" , another great movie. I thought it looked very interesting.
The cast has a pretty good line up.

I thought the movie was amazing. It was definitely the best Leonardo has ever been. It was amazing how loaded the cast was and yet none of them butted heads for positioning during the movie.

The ending suprised the hell out of me. Although, thinking back about it - it couldn't have ended any other way.

I got to see it in a theater with nobody in it but me, my brother, and my friend. Huge theater with reclining seats. I stood up and farted pretty loud because I could. Oh, and the movie was one of the best I've seen, ever.

Good flick. I've not seen Infernal Affairs (the original JApanese title it's based on) but there are some who say this is even better.

Anyway, I really enjoyed it. I thought Leo was good, and I HATE that guy.

It was a good movie, but it wasn't as great as deserving worship or anything. I felt that I could have spent my money better and waited for DVD. Maybe I'm just not as into the macho chest-beating bullshit drivel that seems to be the norm for "man-movies" these days. I prefer good acting that actually includes good dialog over simply good facial expressions. Maybe it's just me.

Matt Damon has become an acting-type actor. His roles all seem to be very similar these days, especially when he talks. As is common with actors that develop an ego that hungers for the public.

I didn't think it was just "chest-beating drivel" at all. I thought it had some tense moments as each mole struggles both to keep from being detected and to catch the other guy. I felt like it was well-written, well-acted, and well-directed.

If you want to see an example of crappy man-movies, check out The Marine. I had a friend drag me to it (only by paying for my ticket) and it was probably the worst 80's movie ever. Bad acting, bad directing and more things blowing up then all 3 mission impossible movies.
