Source Code in an empty theater
« on: May 21, 2011, 09:19:09 PM »

Far from an epic experience, but it was cool to enjoy the indy-cult film experience in a pretentious suburb of Sacramento.

Tre, here in LV you could attend a major movie during its first week run with less than 20 others in the theater.

I saw Fast Five on opening day (noon showing) and there might have been 30 also watching it.

Theaters here only seem to draw big crowds on Saturday nights.

I don't recall any "sell-out" nights in he past few years.

 I thought source code was a great movie. Very powerful and epic. Very well thought out plot. It's was actually an intelligent and well-made movies. A nice break from the usual shit movies Hollywood pumps out.

 2 thumbs up from BF and RS.

Yea, BFRS, I also enjoyed it .... but I forgot how it ended.... Did he retain his "new life" as her husband or what?

Shitty movie with plot holes galore.....

#1....did you bother to even think about this...he is implanted into the last 8 minutes (or whatever) of a guys life.  All he is doing is using the dead guys memories to relive that time span...so, tell me how it is that he can magically find a bomb that the dead guy never knew was there!

To be fair, if I walked into a movie on a Saturday night, and saw a large black male sitting by with a Caucasian she-beast, I would've let them have the theatre as well.

 I saw that too.

 But then at the end of the movie they said that they actually created a whole new world instead of just his memories. So that plot hole was actually filled in.

Source Code was a decent film - better than I thought it would be.
