The Number 23

Jim Carrey doing serious...and weird.

An interesting plot: A man (Carrey) becomes obsessed with a book that appears to be based on his life but ends with a murder that has yet to happen in real life.

A pretty good trailer: The Number 23

Seems good so far, but...

A pretty dodgy director: Joel Schumacher. He made some good movies earlier in his career (The Lost Boys, Flatliners, Falling Down), but his recent out-put has been pretty crap...

What do you think of this? Will it be good, or will it be Batman & Robin?

Haha, cause Batman & Robin was bad. I get it. Funny.

I'll see the trailer when I get back to my dorm, but offhand this seems to be similar to the plot of Stranger Than Fiction

Yes, you are.

Are you saying you want to eat me? Well..I'm flattered. And disturbed. And happy. And blue. And impatient.

You're like a rainbow cookie filled with light and laughter.

Now, let us break bread if it do ya.

I agree in fact it sounds exactly the same... Even in Stranger Than Fiction Will Farrell's character is going to die, maybe not necessarily murdered ... But yeah weird... Those plots sound identical.

I like Bread. I think. Generally. But not so uch in specific cases. Anyways, the trailer crashed my computer twice, so i did notyet get to watch it, but from the sound of it I am looking forward....not generally..to it..if you know what I mean.

I saw the trailer a second ago.

Looks interesting. I'd see it in theaters.

I LOVED this movie.

Saw it tonight on the first night it was out in theaters.

Best movie of the year so far.

Jim Carrey's performance was superb.

GO SEE THIS MOVIE.

i also just saw this movie. it was alright. i mean it. i'm not horsing around. it's definitely just okay.

okay? i have reasons, okay?

k.

Yeah, it's pretty terrible.

No way.

For the kind of movie it is, it keeps you interested the whole way through.

Right. I've seen it all before.

I was fairly unimpressed. As it was unfolding, I kept thinking that it was going to just like "The Game". 3rd act wasn't bad, just too much explaining crammed into a little bit of time, whereas things should have been pieced together slowly.

The whole number conspiracy thing is so stupid and tired, also bullshit, btw.

The movie looked stupid.

"And tired"?

"The Da Vinci Code", "National Treasure"..whatever other "conspiracy" movies as of late that deal with numbers.

I'll tell ya, the whole "Sin City" comic sidestory visuals really ruined it for me.

C-Dic always gets me, it's like we're made for eachother. <3

the entire concept of fearing a number is pretty ludicrous. the ending was pure shite, descended straight into melodrama.

the only thing i can say is that it was relatively interesting.
