The best movie I've seen in a long while!

I watched this last night, and came on Amazon this morning to buy it. I am one of the few it seems to not have known that this was a Broadway musical first, so I too went into this movie thinking it was going to be something different than it was, more Disney like. It was spectacular. The story, the music and lyrics, all was very entertaining. It was heartfelt and funny, capturing and whimsical. Both my 9 and 10 year olds watched it with me the second time and loved it. I highly recommend it whether or not you're familiar with the musical itself. It doesn't disappoint. Those who gave it lower stars/ratings seem to do so because it wasn't a typical Disney movie; it's not supposed to be. It is based on the Broadway musical. Like I said, I did not realize that either but it would not change my rating of it. Just understand that before watching.

I love this movie. It's been a long time since I last saw a movie with this much heart!
Great performances from everyone involved.

I wasn't planning on watching this movie.  Another animated feature film for the kiddies, a ton of good reviews, ho-hum.  Well, this past weekend, I decided to check Rottentomatoes, a movie website that tallies the average of over a hundred critical reviews and gives a percentage: Iron Man got a 93% (excellent!).  Wall-E got 97%!  Ok, so maybe I should see it.  I went with my brother, and sat in a crowded theater with more  kids than adults.  Wow, was I blown away!  Yes, the visual effects and animation were state of the art, but we've come to expect that.  What I couldn't foresee was how human the animated robotic protagonists were, and how well-told the story is.  The litmus test of a great children's movie seems to be that it is very appealing to adults, that adults leave the theater, drive home, and talk about it with their friends and family.  This movie is one grown-ups will love, quite possibly the first children's animated movie that adults will admire even more than their kids.  It is THAT good!  And the romance between the two lovable robots will set a standard that most live action movies with a romantic theme wish they can achieve.

This is a great environmental movie too, one that Al Gore "An Inconvenient Truth" doesn't come close to matching.  Imagine this, a children's animated movie that's truly hilarious, sad, thoughtful and heartbreaking, mature, romantic, and with a social conscience that doesn't pander.  One of the best movies I've ever seen.  Five stars isn't enough for a film that brought tears to the eyes of a few full-grown men (mine included, ok, I admit it!)  You must see this film in a crowded theater, and watch for the applause at the end from the audience.

This was one of the best movies I have watched in a very long while.  I thoroughly enjoyed it.  I wanted to see it because of the story it told, not expecting much due to having seen a lot of low budget movies of the sort.  But everything about this film was top rate, from the acting to the cinematic elements.  AND I was not bombarded with foul language or explicit imagery. What a relief!

This is one of the BEST movies I have seen in a long time.  It has a great story line and great actors.  There was no excessive bad language nor violence - just a good believable story that made you feel good after watching it?

This is one of the best movies I have seen in a long time. The acting is wonderful. Each character is very believable. The story line is entertaining., Although I have never experienced a situation similar to that set up by the story line, I empathized with each character . I'm usually not a person who watches a movie more than once but I have watched this movie three times.

This movies was the greatest I have seen in a long time. Every aspect about it is cool, from the action, to the romance, to the drama, to the digital effect, to sooo much more. Brilliantly directed too! I keep hearing about this first release not having all the features, and my motto "Me ne frego", or I don't give a damn. this is a terrific movie! One for the ages, and at the price is fine by me. ALSO really? Do you REALLY want to wait for some bonus features that your gonna watch one or twice? Get this edition then when the third edition comes out grab that. Dont even bother with it. This IS the movie that was in theaters, what won crowds over globaly! Get it, you won't regret it!

I almost didn't get this movie, but it is so, so good..  This is by far the best movie I have seen in a long while.  Your imagination is stirred from start to finish and beyond.  Well done all actors, and big kudos to the Author.

I'd give this movie 10 stars if I were able. It is sooooooooooo good. I had two people randomly tell me I needed to see it, so I ordered and I was not disappointed at all. It was even better than they said it was. I loved it. I will watch it again with friends and family many times.

The Lincoln Lawyer has been on my to watch list for some time and I have finally been able to watch it.  It was the best movie that I've seen in a very long time.  The storyline is very well written and keeps you guessing.  I would definitely recommend this movie to anyone looking for a great drama, suspense movie!

I think this is one of the best movies I have seen in a while. It has everything you want in a film. The crew, the director, the screen writter the author and ALL the actors were great.  I had not seen a combination like this where the crew, director, writters & actors work together so that they can bring to pass a film of this quality in a long time. What they did to this closing of the Saga is absolutly extraordinary.
I am happy with this Saga but Breaking Dawn Part 2 just made a homerun with the bases loaded.
I recommend it to everyone, you will be pleasently surprised
