  Really bo-o-oring
  
  I did my best to watch this movie to the end, but gave up in the middle - just really boring.

  Definately worth a look
  
  Bit of a no brainer, but a pleasant suprise all the same. Perfect for a Sunday afternoon.

  Company Man
  
  Unimaginal drivel. Storyline could have been sewn up within half an hour.
  
  Not worth anyone's time.
