ZODIAC at 100% on Rottentomatoes.com with five reviews...

Excellent reviews from Variety and Hollywood Reporter.

Possible spoiler from a reviewer. :(

Quoting from VARIETY
"Playing the author of the book on which the film is based, Gyllenhaal carries the burden of the large structure capably and lightly. Starting as an almost naive foil for Avery's urbane cynicism, Graysmith ultimately sustains his obsession longer than anyone, and with endurance comes reward, even if his complete immersion costs him his second wife (Chloe Sevigny)." Was that a spoiler??

I'm seeing it this Friday night - get this - with the hubby, even!   :o   ;D

It's kind of part of my birthday gift extravaganza, since he screwed up *again* and scheduled himself to be flying on my actual birthday.  ::)

Hmmmm...  Maybe I can get a pre-season baseball game followed by a visit to Blue Martini out of him, too...

No more beans!

Oh, and in light of those five glowing reviews, that person who saw a screening of it last week and posts that it "is not very good" must be a raving looney or idiot or both.  What - not enough explosions and flying body parts for ya?

 ::)

Like the one responder said, I think I'll take the critics' word over yours, thanks.  Especially given the fact that you said the following:  "(Jake)  tends to look like he's sleepwalking through his roles, and Zodiac is no different."

Huh-WHA?

Babe, either you and I aren't watching the same movies, or you're doing some serious drugs just beforehand.
No more beans!

Who gives a F about reviews anyway?  :P

If all the Zodiac reviews are bad, still won't change the fact that I am going to see it!  8)

You won't have to ask me twice.  You all will be the first to know.  :)

Jesus H! This distinctly limits the probability of my seeing this in the theater. An intermission might make it more feasible and pleasant (whatever happened to those?).
