What was great about this flick was the character development and just a ton of little scenes that were great. Better written and performed than they had any right to be. Devane gave this really strange, slow burn performance that was weird, but great. Whatever that means...

I thought it was moderately funny. The ending was priceless. The acting was good. But the story was so dumb that I couldn't overcome it. I was hoping for some semblance of a story to supersede the ridiculous number of cameos (which, admittedly, were hilarious).

Great trailer. They really did a great job of lampooing (with loving affection) those old 70's style trailers in "Grindhouse"

Just watched Smart People. Nothing groundbreaking, but it's a nice little movie with some great acting. Good script, good dialogue, interesting characters.
Acerbic, taciturn widower professor (Dennis Quaid) raises brilliant, dysfunctional family who hate each other. His screwup, stoner adopted brother moves in with his family and begins to serve as yin to his yang. Meets a former student, now a doctor who he falls for. Complications ensue. Nice cast as well.

Good to hear a good thing about it. Maybe I'll actually rent it.

Yeah, I'm not sure I'd sing its praises or anything. I can see how people panned it. It's probably one of those movies that I liked because it dealt with material that resonated with my own life.

I just finished watching "Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb." Little late to the party.. I know. I enjoyed it, but it's not all it's cracked up to be.

I am floored that Hancock is still playing in some first run theaters. It finally ended it run here in Topeka.
