Yeah, this was pretty bland. I went to see this for Mila Kunis, but I guess I should have waited for Black Swan instead. Bleh.

This was actually very enjoyable. Slow movies don't necessarily mean "bad". There was a soul purpose for this film. Glad their keeping the original theatrical cover.

Atleast they stuck with the poster art. I wasnt a huge fan of this. Will give it another try via rental though.

This is a day one purchase for me, I loved this movie. I'm really happy to see more and more Blu-Rays coming with a standard copy of the movie. Easier to take to friends houses, and watch in other rooms of the house.

Loved this stylish, if uneven film and its measured pacing....a welcome change from the typical loud & frenetic fare so 'in fashion' today....Day 1 as well.

The Bluray will include the PiP "Maximum Movie Mode" feature which I love.

Will check this out, Denzel is always worth a watch.

The only thing this movie didn't do was pass around a collection plate. BORING. Waste of time and money. I normally like Mr. Washington and Mr. Oldman's movies, this has got to be the worst movies of the year.

Great movie! Loved Washington, Oldman and Mila Kunis

One of the greatest movies I have ever seen. To bad there is not a two disk release.

I had the chance to see this and Legion and chose Legion. Oh what a terrible decision that was. Even if Book of Eli sucks, it's virtually impossible for Book of Eli to be worse than Legion. This looked decent, but didn't need to rush out to see it. Definitely seeing this for Mila Kunis. She's beyond hot.

I agree. It didnt stick out to much, though good.

Man this wasnt THAT boring or bad. Why all the hate? I thought the pacing was fine. I was never bored with it. Not sure how i feel about the ending, that twist REALLY caught me off guard

Quote: I saw an early screening of this with the Hughes Brothers doing a Q&A after. Neither of them ever played Fallout 3. And have you ever heard of a movie called "A Boy and His Dog"? You're kidding yourself if you think Fallout 3 was the first thing to use this setting.

Okay calm down, there, Homeslice....Hey, Sarcasm just said to ask you if you've ever heard of him?....Look, I was just poking fun at some of the similar visual imagery. Yes, it's true Fallout 3 is not the first artistic concept to embrace a post-apocalyptic premise or setting. Far from it. In addition to A Boy and His Dog, as you so aptly pointed out, here are a few more prominent examples: the Mad Max films, I Am Legend (3 film versions AND source novel), Escape From New York (I will not mention the turdfest sequel by it's proper name, however), Stephen King's The Stand, the 80's PC games Wasteland ( Fallout's true spiritual predecessor) and Bad Blood, Cormac McCarthy's The Road, elements of Red Dawn, any number of classic 50's sci-fi films and the granddaddy of them all, the good ol' Book of Revelations - which more or less brings us full circle with The Book of Eli. Bottom line: Fallout 3 is merely one of the most recent, well known and popular examples to reference, so I did. Seriousy, man - remind me next time I make an attempt at humor in my comments to add a footnote that reads "Sarcasm was here". Sheesh.

This wasn't an atrocious movie, but it did have some problems. Oldman, as earlier mentioned is always reliable. Denzel was physically awesome as a fighter (kinda like in Virtuosity) and I really liked his character regardless of some flaws.

One problem I had was the misuse of Ray Stephenson. He made one of the largest impressions on me, and yet he only got maybe 5-10 complete minutes of screen time and little to no dialogue. He fleshed out a character that was probably just another meat-headed henchman on paper.

And the ending didn't make sense, as far the situation with Denzel. He was making eye contact with every person, operating an ipod, killing a mutated cat in the opening with ridiculous precision? Hmmm...

A lot of potential but some little things brought it down for me. Still a day one purchase cuz it is a cool movie regardless.

I'm glad you were kidding. It's hard to judge tone on the internet, and especially when your sarcastic statement is something that a lot of kids on the internet have been saying (in a serious manner) since the trailers for this movie came out.
