4. I kind of liked the Fogotten but you're right
it did get kind of silly. I really like Julianne Moore though

6. YEs, Juliane is great and they could have taken the story to a really...
interesting place but choose to take the easy, wacky way out.

They created a great sense of paranoia in the beginning though. I was so bummed at the direction it went.

9. ***more spoiler***
I liked a lot of things about it but then...the alien thing was just too much.

They could have done something really cool a la Sixth Sense or something like that.

11. Agreed ***spoil***
I didn't like how they went the supernatural route. I think realistic plots even in thrillers/mysteries

3. Troy, but beware
If you know the Illiad well, DON'T watch it for accuracy. Other than that, it's a great action movie. Just repeat it to yourself, it's a great action movie. :)

10. i just saw Friday night lights, i really liked it
only watch Troy if you are in the mood to laugh, it's unintentionally hilarious.
