Academy Award Please

If you're as tired of the usual Hollywood pop culture fair as I am, then you will appreciate this poignant, heart wrenching tale even moreso. What a great picture. What a profound picture. Every American ought to see it right away.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

What a crap movie

This movie had all the ingredients except decent writing and directing. The implausible ending was so foolish and amateurish, my wife and I almost felt like asking for our money back. I feel sorry for Wesley Snipes and Don Cheadle for choosing to participate in such racist, yes, RACIST propoganda. Give us a break with the black stereotypes already. Cheadle's turn at the end was ridiculous, as if even decent ambitious black men harbor murderous rage just below the surface. Warning to all conscious people: You will be offended.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

a surprisingly poignant movie

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. It had heart, it had depth, it had laughs and romance. I got a feeling I was getting a sneak peek into Sandler's real life. Yes, it was long. But so was "Twilight," "Harry Potter," and so many other movies people seem to love. I'm taking my wife to see it tonight. It's great to see a movie that makes you think about your own mortality. Definitely for the mature minded.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
