Last Friday night my wife and I saw a film that we agree is the
best we'd ever seen - CREATOR, starring Peter O'Toole and Mariel
Hemmingway (sp?).  We went back Saturday night to see if what we
saw was as good the second time around.  This stucture of the
film is an incredable blend of emotions, and is so tightly knit
in mixing the emotions, that you are left in sort of a daze.
 
Creator is an EXCELLENT film.  The first time we saw it, it seemed
like it took 3 hours to view,  the second time however, it seemed 
like it tool 1/2 an hour to view.  This however, may be common to
second viewings so close together.
 
ANYWAY - I'm curious...how may out there have seen this movie?
 
I would enjoy hearing what others think about it.  Anyone open for
discussion?
 
If you havn't seen the movie, I highly reccomend it!

I quite agree with Ray.  I saw the movie a few days ago after a very
*intense* amount of hacking.  I had be privy to the Siskel/Ebert reviews,
and was prepared for a rather lackluster but probably ok movie with Peter
O'Toole as the resident crazy.

I was *extremely* surprised!  Now here was a MOVIE!  I also believe that
the critics missed the point of the movie - Siskel/Ebert didn't like the
second part of the movie with the subplot of the two young lovers, but I
felt that this was making a comment on the first part of the movie.  Too
bad the critics didn't see it the same way.

Summary:  Go see it!  It will be worth your time, especially after hacking..
