You should make up your own mind.

That's the conclusion I have come to as far as movies go. Not many people I know have good taste in movies, so I never listen to what other people say about them anymore.

Ahh, I need to see that one. The previews didn't make a very good impression, but as I don't see how it could be a bad movie...good premise, good cast, decent budget...It should be good.

National Treasure is predictable and very clean, feel-goody like any other Disney movie, but still a good watch. Haven't seen Skycaptain yet...

Previews look horrible for it. I wouldn't go see it. Then again maybe it'll be good, who knows. Tell ust what you think.

ok, I'm backthey captured the feel and look of those old serials. It's like nothing I've ever seen. For this I forgive the lame story. I would reccomend it just because it is so unique, it's quite amazing visually.

I give it two bent valves out of four

I was a bit weirded out by the blurry, 40's and 50's feel of the movie.

Must see the whole thing though before I say anything else about it though.

It was a fun to watch movie, in my world...that means its good! I liked National Treasure as well, predicable, and historically innaccurate as hell...but fun! I really enjoyed both of them.

WTF, National Treasure sucked so much. I was forced to watch that movie, ugh, it was good that my littler brother and i made fun of it. But that hardly made it into the: 'stupid movies that are fun to watch category.' Glad it wasn't my money spent

say...anyone ever see Robot Jox?

that movie rocked...it was low budget, but the effects weren't really too bad considering when it was made....

I dunno...just started thinking about it for some reason.
