Ewan and Ryan are both superbly hot.

I might have to catch this one based on that fact alone.

I liked it a lot, especially thinking back on it. The continuity in it is very good, and it is shot with a very cool style.

Ewan's highwaters were hilarious, and the reason for them being that way was pretty cool.

Gosling is a very good up and coming young actor. He and Gyllenhall are my two favorite young actors out there.

This movie is garbage. I saw it when it was at the theaters, what an absolute waste of time.

Oh wait, I vaguely remember now...yes...the description didn't jar it in my mind but the highwaters comment I made did.

Yeah, I stand by my original post in that I liked it.

I just watched it. I really liked this one. Visually it was fantastic. Don’t let the 26% rating at Rotten Tomatoes scare you away, or the $3.6 million box office receipts on a $50 million budget. If you like watching movies that you have to contemplate for a while after watching, you should enjoy it. Shakespeare fans should pick up on the various Hamlet references.
