For some reason, it greatly amuses me that he referenced a Castlevania site.

I can say with total confidence that whenever I walk into a Pixar movie, I KNOW I will be very entertained.

You do realized you have just put all moviegoing parents in Connecticut on alert.

Just Kidding.

How about "I just saw the movie, and I thought it was excellent" - Mistwell

Seriously, this is a pretty good movie in my opinion, and I tend to be harsh on movie reviews. The actor who plays the character Craven really sucks. But beyond that, it's a solidly good movie. Quite entertaining. Go see it and judge for yourself.

Arr them lilly livered lampey spawn been darned near worth a watching.

[ Blah ]
It was a fun movie to watch, the romance is 'mediocre', but it isn't the point of the movie. Nice cinematography, combat was soso (not gun-fu like matrix, and no real showmanship in general, just nice flips), the effects were nice (the wereform change is nice to watch).

What yonder lady said tis true! Underworld shivered me timbers me only complaint is that the scallywag Craven din't walk the plank... and twas not enough flurry and daring-do to dueling... needed more flash! The story twas what carried this there movie home to habor... Three and a half hooks up! The captian can't wait till the next skirmish with Underworld 2! Aye!

Argh!

My local newspaper critic gave it 3 stars and I usually agree with his analysis of movies.
Ebert, however, I rarely agree with. Sometimes, he just doesn't 'get it' with some movies.
