Default Good Movies at the Theater?

I am trying to push myself out and want to got to the theater one day soon. Anyone seen any good movies there? I want to see Mama Mia when it comes on the 18th.

Loved sex and the city

Wall-e is awesome

I loved hancock but reviews are not kind

Iron is very good. Amazing performance by Robert Downey Jr

Indy jones is a little far fetched but entertaining

Can't wait for momma MIA

I agree. We went to see Wall-E yesterday and the four of us, all adults, were laughing out loud! It was, as usual, a great Pixar movie!!! I highly recommend going to see this movie!!!

Wow you like movies. I am going to look up that Wall-E. I have rented a few movies I like About a Boy and Juno both cute and light hearted but thought going to the theater may be nice. I too can't wait for Mama Mia. I wish the play was coming here cause I love musicals. Thanks.

I do like movies and the smell of popcorn....mmmmmm and raisinets

But its also a big thing here in LA and an occupational thing for me cuz I work in the business

But each time I go I marvel and what a group of people can truly produce and all that goes into getting it to the theater so I always stay to see all the credits as a thankyou to everyone involved

Mamma MIA should be good I saw the play several times

I totally think you should go to the theater and enjoy

I even love to go by myself if no one wants to go

Mamma Mia is great! If you are of the age that lived the 70s, you will catch and enjoy every nuance of the film! I have already seen it 3 times.

Someone else in the theater had seen it 4 times, and she had also seen the broadway play. Says the film is a little cheesier, but hey, she's seen it 4x now.. LOL

I can't wait to be able to buy it (I have only bought 5 total.) I have the music on CD in the car all the time.

My 88 year old mother enjoyed it, and I've seen young (musically inclined) people also enjoy it. BUT I really think only those of us who truly were involved in the late 60s and 70s will catch it all. I still see new things each time.

I saw Mama Mia (musical) in Chicago last year. I loved the music/acting
Laughed, cried and took it all in. I am afraid that after seeing that, I will not like the screen version. What may see it any way.
I just saw Iron Man and Hulk. Iron Man was great and Hulk was pretty good. Its great to see our comic books coming to the screen and letting our kids a chance to see what we grew up with. Hope they will continue to make these movies.

Saw Mamma Mia. Grew up in the 70's. Loved the music. Thought the plot was a little lame, but it was worth seeing.

Would have liked to see Sex in the City, but it didn't stay in our small theatre long, and I didn't want to drive. Will rent it when it comes out on video. My DH thinks Sex in the City is "disgusting", but he's never watched any of the episodes on TV. He didn't even know that some of the characters were (sometimes) married. Just assumes it over-emphasizes promiscuity.

My take on it, is that most of the characters really do want a meaningful relationship, and that's what they are searching for. They are just having trouble finding it, and often going about it in the wrong ways. I also like the emphasis on the female friendships -- how they are there for each other.
