are two of my favorite all time films.....Oh and Forrestal, Zodiac was a beautifully made bore, and Button's just a flat out terribly, razzie worthy movie.....So, as long as its a sweet looking film, it will do the material justice.....I just won't get all presumptuous and call it "great.....Panic Room was good entertainment and the less said about Alien 3 the better..... ...
