Saw it last night. Good movie. It didn't seem like it was two hours long--the last half hour or so was pretty suspenseful. I'd recommend seeing it.

I also saw it last night, and I loved it. Especially the ending, I won't however give it away. If you wanna know, either download it, or go see it.

I've been looking forward to this one. I still haven't caught it, and yes...i do plan to see it on the silver screen for the full effect rather than just downloading...for once. I heard that the acting is great and the story fully utilizes the talents of each major actor involved. Norton and De Niro should be great together.

I knew he was in the movie, but I really like De Niro and Norton. Besides, Marlon Brando is not listed as a character; he's basically a setting.

liked it!

Of course, I'm a big De Niro fan from way back. All of the principles were well represented, although in my opinion Angela Bassett was way under-utilized. Norton put in a very respectable performance - I enjoy him more every time I see him. Well done plot development, overall just an enjoyable time.

I have to admit I was a little concerned when Brandon was looking like he was heading up the stairs in the night-club - yikes! The man appeared to have trouble walking.

Saw this movie last night, and De Niro & Norton were amazing! The last 30 minutes were so suspenseful, I almost couldn't bear to watch.

I haven't seen a movie this good in a long time.

I thought it broke some new ground. An interracial headline relationship, setting the thing in Canada when it's actually shot in Canada.

I thought it was pretty good too. Ah hell, my review's on the main page. I won't bore you.

I agree. The last half hour almost made me sick. In a good way I mean.

Oh yeah, did any of you stay to listen to that last song by Diana Krall? That woman really does something for me...

Wow, lots of good feedback here. I'm excited now because we're supposed to see it tonight.
Deniro and Norton are two of my favorite actors too.

Oh, quick question...hapoo, what did you think of The Fan?

Just saw it...

Wow, I think that was one of the tightest movies I've seen this year. I didn't think that DeNiro could make another crime movie that could ever rival Heat, but now I'm not so sure.
