Batman is killer! Easily the best one ever. As the critics said, this is how they ALL should have been done!

This one flat out OWNED the previous films. It was even left WIDE OPEN to go back and fix the first abortion of a bat man movie.

I would like to see it just because the main character (Batman) is played by a guy that pulled off the lead in "American Psycho"

That was one bizarre movie!

Can anything suck too badly when it has Angelina Jolie in it?

Even if its a chick-flick I'd just turn down the sound and watch her...

Yeah, it wasn't that great... if it weren't for Angelina, I probably wouldn't have seen it on opening weekend or in the theaters at all for that matter.

Went with my wife... I got to look at Angelina, she could look at Brad... it all worked out.

I went with my wife also, lol.

I saw the Longest Yard also and it was another 5-6 on the rating scale for me. So far I really enjoyed Star Wars the best I rate it 7-8 would be better, but you just kind of know before hand the theme of the movie. If it was my first time seeing it I would say 8-9.

I want to see the Longest Yard, but haven't had time to. Now, I have found time to see Star Wars twice, and will probably go at least one more time before it leaves the theaters.

I'd give it an 8 or so on the scale... was great except for the really painfully-bad acted love scenes between Padme and Anakin. "sobsob I don't know who you are anymore! sobsobsnifflesniffle Anakin you're breaking my heart!"

Enough already, more lightsabers dammit!
