If I were going to see a movie this weekend, do you have a suggestion?

[babylonsister]

This from a person who hasn't been to a movie theatre in over a year. Be kind.

[nadinbrzezinski]

1. Defiance... yes we went today

it is a very strong movie, based on real events around the Holocaust

A movie I told mom, DO NOT take dad to see... too close to home

Final credits, the music I was going... haven't heard that tune since I was in HS

[readmoreoften]

2. Doubt, The Wrestler, Milk (if possible in your area)

All three are Oscar noms. Depends on what you want, though. Fun, eye-candy, comedy, depth, education, moving sentiment, etc...

[babylonsister]

8. The DH suggested the Button movie; when I told him it was 3 hours

long, he has backed off. He lurves the Oceans 11/12/13 movies.

[klook]

3. Slumdog Millionaire

See it twice. It's absolutely great.

[cynatnite]

4. Slumdog Millionaire, Milk, or Frost/Nixon...

I think any of those are well worth the time to watch. All three are excellent!

[vanderBeth]

5. Slumdog Millionaire

:)

6. I'm seeing Slumbog Millionaire on Sunday

n/t

[John Q. Citizen]

7. The one movie I'd like to see is Slum Dog Millionaire. I hear it's beautiful love story and a

visually beautiful movie

[Catherine Vincent]

9. Mall Cop

I thought it was funny.

[Shardik]

27. I watched the first five minutes of it on my laptop and it looked pretty good.

Surprisingly. :) I heard one reviewer say it was a comedy with a heart.

[U4ikLefty]

10. I've seen "Slumdog Millionaire", "the Wrestler", and "Milk" in the

last week & all of them were incredible for differnt reasons.

The endings were very different & that may be the deciding factor.

Pick one & you can't go wrong.

[proud2BlibKansan]

11. Milk

It's wonderful.

[JeanGrey]

12. GRAN TORINO - Vintage Eastwood and fabulous.

[babylonsister]

15. My sister raved about that one. nt

[Lost-in-FL]

19. Great movie...

:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[JeanGrey]

35. Yup.

[Shardik]

24. It was okay...

I was a bit disappointed in it though. Maybe because of all the hype. I found it very much clichéd and predictable. Clint's best work this year was with Jolie.

[JeanGrey]

34. I loved it. The Changeling wasn't even close. The fact that

Gran Torino and especially the "Dark Kight" were both snubbed for best picture means I'll be skipping Oscar this year. No wonder the ratings are down.

[NavyDavy]

13. Bolt 3D took my 9 yr old daughter and we loved it

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

14. Slumdog Millionaire, or The Wrestler.

[babylonsister]

16. OK, the Pitt movie sucks, too long, did anyone see it? nt

[Lindsey]

18. I loved the Benjamin Button movie. I also loved Slumdog

Millionaire. Frost/Nixon and Milk were excellent as well. I'm going to see The Reader and The Wrestler this weekend. If you could only see one, I'd suggest Slumdog Millionaire.

[babylonsister]

32. Thanks for the heads-up. Really.

:fistbump:

[JeanGrey]

36. I did. TOO LONG. By a lot. At least an hour. It drug in parts,

and well it just never got going. I'm glad I saw it but frankly I'm amazed at all the nominations.

[otohara]

39. Loved It

a little long, but the story is so sweet, I didn't mind the extra time.

[shirlden]

40. Loved It !!!!!!!!!!

My son has already seen it twice. What a love story !!!!!!!!!

[iamjoy]

17. Revolutionary Road

I haven't seen it, but I've read the book and it was very good. Usually movies don't do literature justice, but I've heard this one does.

[babylonsister]

33. Ha! Thanks for hawking books. I agree usually.

Books rock and roll, so 'Revolutionary Road' sounds interesting.

[slampoet]

20. City of Ember is on DVD. Excellent. Also Milk, The Wrestler, and Slumdog like everyone else is sayin

[Lost-in-FL]

21. Another vote for Defiance and...

a thumbs up for Vakyrie (the movie is great, even with Cruise).

[gristy]

22. Frost/Nixon

Really good, and I don't like most movies in the theaters these days.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frost/Nixon

[tavalon]

23. Milk

Get in just a bit a head of the curve. This one is going to sweep the Oscars and besides, as weird as this sounds, even though Harvey dies in the end and that's no spoiler since it's a real story, the story itself is so upbeat and joyous.

[shirlden]

41. A good one

Milk is great and Penn deserves an oscar. Going to see it again with a friend........

[stuntcat]

25. Doubt is great!

I haven't see Slumdog millionaire thought, or Milk. I'm sure those are wonderful, I'll get used dvd copies on the internet since we didn't make it to the theatre to see them.

I had seen Doubt on stage a few years ago, the movie left me feeling exactly the way I did after the play, it's great.

[Shardik]

26. very much enjoyed The Wrestler.

Fantastic acting in all roles. And a touching story that was original in its delivery.

[JeanGrey]

37. Good to see Mickey coming back. I was also thrilled

for Robert Downey Jr and Ironman. We lose so many to senseless drug deaths, I am always pulling for those than dig themselves out of the hole. And Downey was about as far as you get before the next headline is "dead of a overdose".

Ironman was my fav this year. In many ways I liked it as well as Dark Knight.

[hay rick]

28. First movie I've seen in close to a year

was Slumdog Millionaire. Very entertaining. The story is corny and sentimental, but you won't care. The Indian slums that provide the background to the movie are worth the price of admission. Stick around for the credits...

[greenbriar]

29. Gran Torino

an awesome movie

[Cheap_Trick]

30. Slumdog Millionare

EXCELLENT film. Going to see The Wrester on Saturday. Hope it's as good.

[bertman]

31. If you're a dog lover "Marley and me" is funny as hell and poignant. The reviews are

raving about "The Wrestler".

[otohara]

38. Benjamin Button

it's a lovely story.

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

42. Doubt is great in every respect. Particularly Meryl Streep's performance.

A challenging film.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

43. Slumdog Millionaire and if not, Milk or The Wrestler.

[WillieW]

44. if you have kids, see Hotel for Dogs,
