I blind purchased this movie for a few reasons. First, Edward Norton is my favorite actor. But the reviews on the cover swayed me. Roger Ebert said it was "One of the year's best!....A masterpiece". Harry Knowles from Ain't It Cool News said it was "Outstanding". And Peter Travers from the Rolling Stone gave it 3.5/4 stars. And I have to say all of them are out of their mind. It's not a "bad" movie. But it's a rental at best. And fair at best. Come on Roger, a "masterpiece"!???
