Has anyone else seen this movie? And did it blow your fucking mind? Cuz I watched it the other night and I immediately wanted to watch it again. It was just so beautiful and intense.

Wow wow wow.

I loved it for about 92% of its duration.

Here's what I wrote about it at the time: http://areyougenehackman.blogspot.com/2007/07/i-think-it-will-be-beautiful.html

That ending totally killed the movie for me.  Ending not included, it was one of my favorites from last year.  It's beyond beautiful in HD.

Haha I just thought it (or Cillian) was so pretty that the ending didn't even phase me. I thought it was so cool.

I think I'm going to watch it again this weekend.

I loved it. Even though the plot turned into Event Horizon Lite, by then it had earned enough goodwill with me that I didn't care. My "Film Friends" didn't like it, but they seem to like things soaked in blood.

SPOILERS! IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE MOVIE, MOVE ALONG THEN PEOPLE, THERE'S NOTHING TO SEE HERE! SPOILERS!!!







I thought the captain who ate it in the beginning was going to be the sabatour, not the deux ex machina of the other ships captain... and I think that would have been a better villain. Like the bearded captain is in League With The Sun! Not the severe burn victim that can overpower a whole ships crew.

I kind of liked it.  Same reservations as those above.

Not as good as the Solaris remake, though, for that vibe.
