Agreed...I thought it would be a really good movie but it turned out average at best. Bale's decent in it as he throws himself into every role but honestly, there's not much else there.

I have never seen Mr. Brooks but I heard good things about it. For $9.99, the blind buy cannot be too much of a gamble.

It is actually pretty good for a movie that didn't get much buzz and it looks and sounds really good as well. If it was on your to rent list then yeah I would say you might as well throw in the couple extra dollars and own it.

I loved Rescue Dawn. I thought it was very well done. If you are expecting a popcorn action movie, you might want to rent it first.

The only thing that kept me from turning it off was looking at how skinny he and some of the other actors were for the roles. I was really looking forward to the movie too.

Is Van Wilder worth an upgrade from DVD at this price? I know the reviews on the quality of the Blu have been horrible.

You would of course have seen Machinist then? Bale takes it to unhealthy but extraordinary levels. That's a great movie.
