I saw it a few weeks ago on movieplex and I was very impressed by what I saw. I missed probably the first half hour of it, I was just flippin through the channels when suddenly this incredible looking movie caught my eye! This movie has incredible computer generated graphics, and a very interesting Sci Fi story. There is also lots of action scenes. I also think the voice acting was preatty good too. I think that you have to be a fan of some of the things that I mensioned above to be able to sit through this movie. That's why I recommend that you rent before you buy because some people like my dad for example could never understand why I like this stuff.
Pretty decent
With animation just below that of Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within, this movie looks simply beautiful. The story is decent with some flaws, but nothing major or anything detracts from the experience. The creators of the movie have been in the business for over 20 years, making over 200 a year with many for Warner Brothers and Disney. I look forward to owning this on DVD.
Don't panic! After twenty years stuck in development (a mere blink compared to how long it takes to find the answer to life, the universe, and everything), The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy has finally been turned into a movie. Following the radio play, TV series, commemorative towel, and books, this latest installment in the sci-fi-comedy franchise is based on the screenplay and detailed notes by Douglas Adams.

Revelations is a spooky, classy thriller depicting the world as a battleground between satanists and those who adhere to miracles revealing God's divine plan for humanity. Bill Pullman stars as Harvard scientist Bill Massey, whose successful quest to bring his daughter's seemingly demon-possessed serial killer to justice turns him into a well-known debunker of others who claim to speak for the Beastmaster. Problem is, the man who killed Massey's girl appears to be the real thing, endowed with prophetic powers and a second sight that comes in handy when it's time to go after the grieving hero's other child.
It's hard to believe Ridley Scott's handsome epic won't become the cinematic touchstone of the Crusades for years to come. Kingdom of Heaven is greater than the sum of its parts, delivering a vital, mostly engrossing tale following Balian (Orlando Bloom), a lonely French blacksmith who discovers he's a noble heir and takes his father's (Liam Neeson) place in the center of the universe circa 1184: Jerusalem. Here, grand battles and backdoor politics are key as Scott and first-time screenwriter William Monahan fashion an excellent storyline to tackle the centuries-long conflict. Two forward-thinking kings, Baldwin (Edward Norton in an uncredited yet substantial role) and Saladin (Ghassan Massoud), hold an uneasy truce between Christians (who hold the city) and Muslims while factions...

The delightful designs of William Joyce (writer/illustrator of such popular children's books as George Shrinks and Bently & Egg) make Robots a joy to behold. The round, bouncy, and ramshackle forms of hero Rodney Copperbottom and his computer-animated friends are part of an ornate and daffy
