I absolutely adored this movie. It was different, witty and oh so <i>slick</i>.

Anyone with anything more constructive to say: Go!

Thanks. I had only checked the Mississauga theatres and it's not there anymore... I might have to venture into TO for it.

Incredibly, we were planning on seeing V for Vendetta, but the local enormous, soulsucking Famous Players wasn't showing it. So we saw this instead, which I LOVED, and also can't believe was showing there! I'm so confused, usually this theatre limits itself to blockbuster types, but it had TYFS but not V... so, yes, confused. Loved it though.

Is this a Canadian movie? I'm just wondering, because I hadn't even heard of it.

The only thing I heard about it was the Katie Holmes missing sex scene. It caused quite a scandal. :freak:

But yeah, from what I've read I want to see it but it's not playing here. Stinky.

There was a missing sex scene? Cause I definitely remember a fairly explicit montage.
