I saw Insomnia and was disappointed.
I read Red Dragon and liked the book, but books are always better than the movie.
I haven't seen Potter 2, but I've heard so-so reviews on it.

I would probably go with xXx.

I dunno about Full Frontal, but if I could find it playing anywhere here, I'd be the first in line to see it.

xXx is mindless. if you're in the mood for it, it's a sure thing.
hp2 is great. ^__^
red dragon is... ok. not great, but ok

Harry Potter would be my choice. I've seen them all but Dog Soldiers. Actually though, I would go see the new Bond movie. That's newly out today, at least is here in L.A. Dog Soldiers? I am huge into movies, I see pretty much anything that's released and not rated G (and some of those too). Never heard of Dog Soldiers.

Harry Potter 2: great movie: really a near must see

Full Frontal: surprisingly good. half soft porn, half action flick, half drama, half crime mystery. so what's that, 4 halfs? whatever, it was worth the $9 and 1.5 hours

Red Dragon: good, keeping with the silence of the lambs feel. Ed Norton is awesome in this. overall it's a little lacking, but good.

xXx: not an ambitious movie, did what it tried to do well.

Insomnia: I love Robin Williams, I hate this movie. Sleepy flick.

the bond movie isn't going to be out until january..

dog soldiers's an english movie.. here's (http://us.imdb.com/Title?0280609) what the IMDB has to say about it..

harry potter should be fun.. but it's nearly 2,5 hours!! aaahh!

Dog Soldiers: that's not playing anywhere in LA. I just checked. Makes me think it's likely to be either really really good or really really bad. If you see it, post a quick thumbs up or thumbs down.

hmm, that is kind of a lame selection. Insomnia wasn't that great, I just got the DVD a week ago. If you are into the Harry Potter thing, I would say go see that, I tried to watch the first on on cable yesterday and just couldnt do it. Maybe Red dragon would be the best choice. I think I am going to see 8 Mile tonight..

well it's all we have at the moment.. i've seen everything else..

i do have my doubts about harry potter.. it's too long, and i fell asleep during part 1.. don't know about that yet.

xXx just seems like a simple action movie.. guess i'm going for full frontal..

maybe i'll just order tickets for all of them and pay when i'm picking up the tickets.. for a last minute decision..
