Big Fish -- Go See It!

One of the most moving movies I have seen. I could not get over this movie. At the end I was crying, but not just out of sadness... out of.. I don't even know. It was an incredible movie this movie takes you through. One of those movies where for two and a half hours you completely forget who you are, and you feel like your in a story. I stopped watching and had no idea how I was going to exist knowing those characters weren't real.

Go see it. Everything about this movie is just crying out for an oscar, and its unfortunate there can't be more than one best film this year. (RotK and Big Fish are both deserving, in my opinion).

it seems pretty interesting, but I don't think it comes out until Jan 9th or something over here.

I saw it New Year's Eve with some friends, and it was really good. Not quite as dark as Burton's other films, but still a bit weird. Go see it.

I saw a trailer for this film, and it basically "unsold" me. The trailer made no sense at all.

The trailer does suck because its impossible to sumarize the film. For the most part, its about a guy who's father is dying, and growing up, the son never beileved anything the father ever said because he only told tall tales... so its about the son and fathers lifetime relationship, and you see all the tall tales.

Its not nearly as interesting to explain than it is to actually see... go see it. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]
