I saw F.F. this weekend also. I thought it was a good movie but at times it felt rushed. Its like they were trying to explain the beginning but left a lot out. I bet there are a lot of deleted scenes that will be on the DVD. I would give it 3 1/2 out of 5 stars.

In the ad it has the girl saying "you're at the temperature of the sun!" which according to something I read a long time ago: 'something the size of a marble, if it were the temperature of our sun, would incinerate everything for miles around it." Wack for them to screw up physics like that...

Yeah, who cares about physics anymore? People think that sort of stuff is cool but don't care if they get it right or not.

A thermonuclear weapon also explodes at (actually hotter) than the temperature of the sun. Yes, it isn't exactly people-friendly either.

They seem to go along with that theory in the movie. He supposedly stopped before he got that hot. Although if I remember correctly he was asked to turn up the heat to that point in the final battle with Dr. Doom. Interesting because I didn't think of that, but now that you mention it. Hmmm.

Remember, though, that Invisible Babe was containing the energy with a force field. Thing is, the asphalt didn't look too badly worn.

Cool

The Professional (aka Leon)

Fantastic story (abeit a little unbelievable), great acting by a then unknown child star named Natalie Portman.

Definitely worth the see......pick it up on DVD (it's an old movie...1994).

Great movie. I copped an insane crush on her when I saw that movie. I'm only like a year or so older than her (I was fourteen when that movie was made) so don't call Vice yet.

*I'm really not digging her shaved head look for this movie...but she might be the one female that can actually make bald look sexy

Just saw "Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow" on DVD.

What an awesome movie! Sorry its already a year old, but I didnt know about it until now! Really a great sci-fi movie with a kind of retro-noir feel to it!
Loved it!
