I do not recommend going to see it in theaters save your money not worth the price of admission. But on that note I do say Rent it when it comes out will be worth the Red Box price. Its not a Bad movie but its not good either its like Meh type of movie. Starts off way to slow and maybe the best parts of it are too late into the movie before it gets interesting. Still Scarlett Johanson is still super hot. If anyone else see this please express your opinion.

I'll be seeing it regardless for that reason.

I had been thinking about going to see this, however I'll hold off now.

Best movies I've seen this summer were Edge of Tomorrow or the new X-Men movie.

My wife stayed awake for the entire movie. That's saying something.

It's about what I expected. I liked the movie, but if you were expecting an over the top action flick about a woman that can do basically anything then you will be disappointed.

Not to mention the whole "humans only use 10% of their brain" is complete and utter BS.

Yeah, that seems a bit high for a lot of the humans I come across.

I'll just leave this article here.
http://www.somethingawful.com/news/h...percent-brain/

Favorite quote: "Only a few parts of the brain are actually switched on, like the part that controls eating spaghetti, governs our ability to understand spaghetti, and allows us to see spaghetti."

They also break the brain down into what I believe is the most comprehensive representation of neurological functions I've ever seen.

My problem with it was that they gave waaaay too much away in the previews.

You guys do realize, when you go to a movie like this, it is for entertainment and not a Documentary?

Otherwise I have to believe my car will transform and we really do have Guardians of our Galaxy?

Even though it was a movie, it's still fun to discuss the absurdity of the 10% theorem.
