I can't wait to see this movie. When I seen the advertisement on TV for it I about shit myself. Not very often a movie comes out that I really want to see. A friend let me download it if I wanted but it would have taken too long so I just waited for it to come to the theaters. So when anyone here sees it please give a review on it.
