I love running away movies, the fear of getting caught is a pretty cool rush and this has got a good dose of 'Let's get the heck out of here!'

During this alien flick you will experience a state of mental uncertainty and excitement as decisions are accompanied by a degree of apprehension and anxiety.

Surprisingly good. I wasn't in the mood for anything and caught this on TV 'cause I was too lazy to move. Its funny, before I rated this movie, it had a big red 'NOT INTERESTED' and now its got a 3.5 rating which is pretty good in my books.

I saw this when it was first released and I didn't find it that funny, but when they aired it on TV the other night while I was prepping for an assessment, I laughed a lot more than my initial watch and got a kick out of it.

A very appropriate choice when considering the family I believe, it's just the sort of stuff that kids would laugh at and adults would laugh along too. You know? The old "scab a laugh in harmony" trick!

I don't know why I didn't enjoy it the first time but I guess second chances do work. Action, comedy, romance and an idiot, who happens to be the hero? Nice.

HULK SMASH! I'm a "Hulk' fan so of course I got a kick out of this flick.

"Hulk" beats everyone! How do you beat the "Hulk?" You don't. Because you can't.

This was interesting, The"Hulk" meets very worthy opponents that fills this flick with destructive action. "Am I sick for enjoying the 'Hulk' pounding someone's head into the ground?"

"Planet Hulk" is a plus for me. I liked the story, I liked the action and I was pretty happy with the ending. Hmmm, I wonder if "Hulk" will have kids?

This is the third Predator movie and I enjoyed it. I still think part 1 was better with "Arnie" and "Predator 2" with "Glover" was not too bad but this "Predators" was no disappointment either, "Adrien Brody?" ...well done!

I wouldn't of minded if it was a little longer, it felt short for me but otherwise a fairly average sci-fi. I wasn't really affected with suspense and I guess that's just the result of the predictable situations in this story. There was just no surprises for me but anyhow i liked it none-the-less.

The third Predator movie was in my opinion a satisfactory conclusion and there may be a fourth installment judging by the way it finished, or not.

A good night time flick. It's not boring but I did think it would be more entertaining. Anyhow it did turn out to have an interesting conclusion which you can work out before it happens.

A bizarre, deviant liking of alien/mutant sexual nature puzzled me, shouldn't I be disgusted? I guess I wanted to see results like a supernatural baby, who knows? Maybe I just liked it.

A watchable sci-fi that didn't bore me.

Bewildered at first! The bewildered weirdness kicks but and for was very puzzling. Sometimes I felt like "what the heck is going on?" And then I would settle down to see the strange results produced from the unexplainable theories that in the end all made sense!

Very "Twilight Zone"-ish and according to what I know, the original story "Button, Button!" was written by "Richard Matherson" who wrote "I Am Legend" and several "Twilight Zone" episodes which explains the psychological wrenching.

A well done film adaptation for a short-story! Thinking that this team was able to produce a full length movie out of a short-story article from a "Playboy" magazine from 1970... Impressive.

THE ACTION IS CRAZY! I must admit though I had seen this once before and initially would of gave it a lessor score because I was so confused and lost. The second watch however was so much better because now I just had to fill in the gaps which sealed a less-frustrating experience in my sitting.

I decided to be 10 years old and not go to serial-land for this trip so I could see this the way I wished when I was a kid. I remember conversing with family and friends about Transformers and how it would be cool to see it in live action. Well this. Was. Crazy.

I was absolutely entertained, well maybe not the first time round but adjusting my mentality the second time round definitely transformed my opinion. An A-grade action phenomonon.
