Once Upon A Time In Mexico
I do not like Kevin Costner but I liked him in Mr. Brooks. William Hurt was great. Dane Cook should stick to what he does best. NOTHING.
The Prince Of Persia was a whole lot better then I expected. Then again, I didn't have very high expectations.

I saw the movie "The Road", and thought it was good, but sad and melancholy. But did anybody here read the book? Somebody told me that in the book, the boy never was saved by the family; but instead the son shoots and kills his father with that last remaining round in that pistol. That is how the book ends.

I'm glad that I saw The Road, but I'd be hard pressed to say that I enjoyed it. As ERNO said, it was "melancholy", and bleak, and depressing. It's one of those movies that really leaves you feeling there is no hope for mankind.
I hated the movie Starship Troopers, but loved the book. I'd put the movie into the same catagory as Sky Captain & the World of Tomorrow.

The only difference between the endings of the book and the film is that in the book it takes a few days before the boy encounters the family near his father's body rather than right away. Otherwise it was a pretty faithful adaptation.
Starship Troopers, on the other hand, was an absolute travesty of a film. I think I've said this before but Paul Verhoeven makes a bad movie, someone says "this is a bad movie" and then Paul Verhoeven says "ah, no, it's satire."

Just finished The Last Samurai.
The Last Samurai was a pretty good flick in my opinion. Tom Cruise has a lot of really good movies.
