Divine Secrets of the Ya Ya Sisterhood is a crappy chick flick w/goofy eccentric southern old ladies and is a bad movie even for that type of movie it is also a very poor adaptaion of the book-yuck do not go
I liked "Minority Report", my girlfriend thought it was too predictable-I completely disagree tho-the story was okay and it was a great film from a visual standpoint. You may hear about the eyeballs rolling down the hallway scene on the way home tho... I'm skipping "The Sum of All Fears" -much as I love Clancy, the substitution of Nazis (they must be getting a little on in age by now don't ja think?) for arab terrorists is just too obnoxious for words. My recommendation-the Bourne Identity if you haven't seen it, the GF liked that-Road to Perdition looks good but I haven't seen it-neat scenes in the previews of a city (Chicago?) from the 30's that must have been computer generated but looked good-shootin w/1911's and thompsons too! Women seem okay w/films if Hanks is in 'em |

Never even heard of that "ya ya" movie, but it sounds like it sucks just by the name.
Minority Report is very fun to watch, and is pretty cool, but to me the ending left a lot to be desired, and the entire premise of the story is kind of wierd and silly. The Sum of all Fears, I think, is OK but not as good as MR. It is, of course, based off of Tom CLancy's book, but though I haven't read the bood yet, I know Clancy's work (I've read WIthout Remorse, Rainbow Six and Red Storm Rising), and I don't think this movie does his work any justice at all. And besides, so as not to offend anyone they changed the main bad guys from muslim extremists to neo-nazis. The Bourne Identity is also out, and it was pretty good, but I think it's not quite as good as the two I mentioned. And I still can't forgive the writers for having those big pistol bullets stop a quarter inch below the surface of his skin. |

WHAT?!?!? I can't believe after all the ranting and raving on this board about how Tom Cruise is a traitor to our country and that members would never again watch his movies...That "Minority Report" is dominating this poll!!!!
Hypocrisy! Now, I never said this, so I can watch Minority Report without guilt (he he)...but don't plan to because I am a bit pissed at Mr. Cruise. As for what you should take the wife to, SEE WHAT SHE WANTS TO SEE! |

"Minority Report" is awesome. It's based on a short story by Philip K. Dick. He's the same author whose stories were made into "Blade Runner" and "Total Recall". I agree Tom Cruise is a POS, but the STORY is great. Worth Seeing.

Minority Report is very good, and so is The Bourne Identity. The Sum of All Fears was pretty boring for the first hour. The chick flick...ya gotta be kidding.

Screw all that chickflick bullshit. Send your wife to see "Ya-Ya and the Estrogen Uberwenches" with her chick friends, and you go see something with cool guns and killing and tits with your friends.
That's how I solve problems like this at my house. My wife doesn't bitch about seeing stuff I like and she hates, and I don't gripe or snap into a mode in a theater where me and one other guy are the only pussywhipped husbands in the joint. |

I'd rather cut my wrists than see Divine Secrets of the YA-YA Sisterhood. My mom had a copy, and decided to pick it up, because of its retarded title. Couldn't finish 3 pages. Minority Report looks good visually, but the story is silly. Sum of All Fears was a good book, knew the movie was castrated for PC reasons, but it was ok.

Quoted: Quoted: Bravo Tango Tango Scott Why? Gits and Shiggles. Naw. Someone commented on someone commenting on an old thread from liek two weeks ago, so I went looking for threads on the last page. BTW, Haven't seen any of the movies, but wanna see "Minority Report". Dickian future stories are usually interesting..... Scott |

If you have any of those independent theaters around, try to find one playing "Last House On The Left" or "I Spit On Your Grave". I can guarantee if you take your womenz to one of those, you will not be disappointed.

Forget about those movies. If you have to take her to a chick flick take her to see "My Big Fat Greek Wedding". I had to take my wife to see that movie as payback to her going with me to see "We Were Soliders". It was not too bad.
I will never go see another Tom Cruise movie. He is a left wing POS. |
