I haven't seen it yet, but it didn't get that great of reviews. I will probably wait and rent it.

Saw it and thought it was just OK. The funniest parts of the film are in the trailers and clips that have been released all over the web.

I'd just rent it.

I'm probably going to hold off till it hits netflix

I was really excited to see this because the trailer, as usual, made an ok movie look great. I gave my brother shit about wanting to see 2012, and told him I was going to go see a better movie. Now I kinda wish I had gone with him to see 2012

Man I don't think it was THAT bad. I think it just needed a little better direction.

It was a decent movie. I'm not a fan of George Clooney, but I was entertained. I seen this a few months ago at the Toronto Film Fest but I have to say.. one viewing is enough. I won't be buying it.

I thought it was funny and quite intresting, it's just a bit cutsy and tame, there are a few dark moments but the film tries to dodge any pressing issues like death and war.

Just got back, and I completely agree with what you said. It isn't bad, but not great, and all the good parts were in the trailers.

Lol I just saw 2012 tonight, and it was cool for what it was. Just wish Goats was what it could have been
