I'd only give the film a B/B-, but that's not bad for a summer blockbuster, and Robert Downey Jr.'s performance makes it well worth seeing. He's loads of fun, as one would expect. And since I was cooler on the film as a whole than Baltar was, well, I think I can say all of us would recommend it.
Ah, Robert Downey Jr. - love him. Go watch Kiss Kiss Bang Bang if you haven't already. Oh, and sure, this too.

As I said to you and Baltar as we were leaving, I have the same problem with him that I do with Adrien Brody, getting distracted from the movie just watching them walk and talk.
Also I think I liked the film too, though the more I think about it the less I like Paltrow's performance (part of it being the role). And they spent to much time on the exposition, with The Dude as Corporate Raider thing.
