Even though my showing was packed, I'm surprised Biker Boyz did so well at the boxoffice.

I'm kinda bummed Confessions isn't doing better, but perhaps that just means we'll see the DVD sooner. Glad that Recruit opened ahead of the other two releases. Pacino's first #1 opener since Any Given Sunday. Whoa.

That is exactly what I thought. This is a great film, that many people are missing.

I believe that the studio should have released this early in December, rather than the last day of, and I bet anything it would have gotten more attention (by the public and awards shows)

But I am glad that The Recruit beat out FD2 and Biker Boyz.

I knew it'd be a toss-up between this and FD2. Haven't seen FD2, but impressed with The Recruit's $16M take...Pacino movies don't make that much anymore.

why are you so surprised that Biker Boyz did so well? More than half the people in America are stupid... its a new movie that just opened, of course people will see it.

sad, but its the way it is.
