I don't know what all the fuss is about. First of all, though he's top-billed, there simply is not enough Jake Gyllenhaal in the film. Alas, that's a fault common to all too many movies. (le sigh)

So true, so true. But if it has James McAvoy, you're not gonna notice it's missing Jakey.

My friend and I were torn between Zodiac and Starter for 10. We chose Sf10 since I am home alone in a big house this weekend. :creepy: I recommend Sf10. It stars the hottie James McAvoy (Last King of Scotland/Mr. Tumnus) fumbling through his first year at university. It is set in 1985 UK so it has great music from The Cure, Morrissey, Echo & the Bunnymen, Tears for Fears, and more. A lovely story with a little Cameron Crowe/John Hughes feel to it. I do not seem to see many movies anymore, and I am very glad I saw this one. Cheers!

Oh - we also saw previews for a few films that I am looking forward to. Namesake with Harold & Kumar's Kumar, In the Land of Women with The O.C.'s Seth and Across the Universe which looks like a psychadelic 60s wartime musical and has Evan Rachel Wood. I don't like chicks but damn she is HOT!
