    A lot of my concerns with the films were voiced here. The town and school looked like an exurb on a Canadian town (Vancouver) rather than a cold, Minnesota town. Karyn Kusama was not the person for this. She did not improve the script nor did she bring any real atmosphere to the film. Pity. Imagine what this movie could've been with Reitman at the helm.
  • You guys totally nailed it!

    Great job as usual.
  • Go See the Loved Ones...

    Though, I think I'll stiLL go 2 see this..& enjoy this as weLL...

    Tis more about knowing yourself...knowing whether you'll like something...
  • wth. this is now offically the slashhatefilmcast.

    you should have DannyT to totally back me up. JB was good, it was funny and quirky. i don't think i t was like super amazing but you guys totally ragged on it.
  • I'm by no means a fan of Nicole Kidman, but her world-wide box office hasn't been awful...
