What should I see this weekend?

Slumdog Millionaire
The Wrestler
Gran Torino

I don't know much about "The Wrestler". But, I was down to the other two a few weeks ago. I hear that Slumdog is pretty good, just incredibly long. Gran Torino was rather long as well, but very good. I think it's about an hour shorter than Slumdog though. Slumdog would be a movie that I would watch at home, with a few breaks. I really just can't sit down and stay intense in a movie for 3+ hours at once...

I really liked Gran Torino, though, and will definitely see it again, though probably not in the theater...

Slumdog must just seem really log. I just read that it's 2 hours long.

Slumdog flew by for me, I don't know if it was long or short time wise.

I thought Gran Torino was an awesome movie.

I especially loved The old man's solution to solve the problem(s) in his life. It really exhibited the Japanese concept of "On".
