Agree with you, Doug.
I was just pointing out that we have one of these brainwashed, self-
aggrandizing yahoos in our family, too; and hearing it all the time
DOES get very old.. and quick.

I have a sister-in-law from TX and she and her parents both have
that "All is bigger 'n better in Texas" attitude -- and in spades!
Also not believable but they are allowed to dream..lol

Picky Picky!
All movies are unbelievable. That’s the reason we like them. If
I want believable, I can look out the front door! And I disagree
with you about the score. There is an
appropriate time for loud and this was it.

For the first hour it was really nice, looked beautiful and for the
first time I had the feeling that the IMAX 3D worked. It gave great
depth and stilness. Really appreciate the director's reconciliation
with the simple plot, not overelaborating it and sticking to the 90
minute-format that should be enough for every character's emotional
turmoil. However from the moment Bullock is alone, time is running
out for the story-line and even the clever trick with The Kowalski-
vision does not stop the inevitable decline into unbelievability.
The ending is silly (pretty sure there's a director's cut in the
offing) and the musical score towards the ending unforgivably loud
and predictable.
In the end a pleasurable watch and one and a half thumbs up.

I was truly surprised by the level of suspense generated from start

dead wrong.

Totally agree with you, Doug. I do think she’s been on a roll
recently. But this movie
is more than just her, even though I think she is spectacular.
This is exciting filmmaking.
