I'm sure tourism Ireland loves crap like this.Cork airport could handle such flights, here's the thing though, the flight in route to Dublin gets routed to Wales and arrogant american must get to Dublin right this instant dammit. No flights out and she's missed the ferry so she goes and apparently hires some gombean to take her across in a huge storm, that they pass any number of good and closer to Dublin ports to round the south coast to get to Dingle seemed lost on the producers. To be fair they did mention some other port first that was to dangerous to attempt a call. I am urging people here to rent it so we can havIe a good chat about it.

I shouldn't have put that in there, bad choice of words....I'm taking from the movie with this talk....

Oh please, relax and stop taking it seriously.

Oirish American gal from Boston gets frustrated when her cardiologist boyfriend of four years doesn't propose to her on a dinner date like she expected him too , he is off to Dublin in the morning for a conference and that's when she hatches a plan to go and propose to him.....you see , in Ireland every leap year on that date a woman can propose to her man......only on that day mind .....of she goes to Ireland with only days to spare but.....bad weather forces her to land in Dingle Co. Kerry , Hollywood bog standard hijinks ensue ......she needs to get from Dingle to Dublin in two days......the handsome bar owner in Dingle will drive her for 500 euro....you can guess the rest... A chick flick that will please the missus , lots of beautiful scenery but so many things wrong here .... Matthew Goode has a n Oirish accent that might be even more annoying that the one Tom O'Cruise had in "Far & Away"...Amy Adams plays her part fine for what it is I suppose... Half the fun here for me in this movie was picking out the parts of Ireland that were supposed to be other parts of the country, the producers had beautiful shots of cliffs that are supposed to be Dingle.....but they are in fact The Cliffs at Dun Aengus in the Aran Islands....I am pretty sure none on the movie was shot in Dingle..... The amazing castle they walk up too in "Tipperary" is not in Tipperary and for the most part was computer generated it looks like.... the castle is real but the view up to it is not.....

This , man I was watching and wondering if all of that was left on the cutting room floor.....I thought it was OK, nothing special and felt like others it reminded me of The Wrestler but not nearly as good IMO.

Does Malkovich try and do the SA accent?

Read the book last year or the year before I think, quite good, acclaimed IIRC.

Caught this on Showtime yesterday.....visually beautiful if dark , looks like it was shot in sepia or duotone . Can't compare it to the book as I have never read it but i enjoyed this movie, had some great life lessons and all that.

This was viewed again last night and Lorcan reports that it's even better the second time around. He's probably wondering why his dad can't do all that crazy stuff.

Shocking that I am the only voter so far in this.....

He snap your wrist of now for it I bet....

It's the baby and the dog that steal this movie....I went to Best Buy last night to buy it and they didn't have it...... A few questions This was a sequel to the Jim Carrey movie? Did he think he was too big a star to do this one?

Absolute tripe but it had the kid rolling around with laughter , and me and the misses too because of a combination of the movie and Lorcan.. How bad was this ...five stars being really bad

What's the Part 1 about? I like others am waiting for the baba to get older so we can read it together....

He's 4 and a half. My son started reading them when he was six or seven, I think. I know he was eight when he was reading the fifth book because I remember him getting carsick and puking all over his copy when we were in Italy. Not something you'd likely forget

Royce Clayton talks about playing Miguel Tejada in the movie, good stuff http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/columns/story?columnist=crasnick_jerry&id=5788481

Saw it on HBO last night and glad I did, visually spectacular.....dare I say magnum opus?, no I won't say that but throughly enjoyed it.

Star Wars never did anything for me. Don't know why. This , and even though I enjoyed it I think I enjoyed it more because of my son....I know I would have not sat through it otherwise thanks Sharon

My son has been talking a lot this past few weeks about Star Wars....he must be getting it from Pre-k because I have never actually watched any of them. My wife bought him some PJ's and shirts last week and it's all he wants to wear. There is a Star Wars cartoon that we let him watch at times....loves it....then a few days ago he asked me if he could watch the Star Wars movie , I told him we didn't have it and he asked me to get it......he's talking up a storm these days....so I told him I would buy it and that we would watch it when I got home, missus said it was all he talked about on the way home form school...luckily I had gone to Best Buy and got it......so , for the first time ever I watched the whole movie and it was with my son......very cool. So , the movie even now looks pretty cool graphically, it must have been revolutionary in 1977 , we enjoyed it a lot and I felt like wow about time I got in to it When I came home yesterday it was on again...
