Marla came home from Hy-Vee and picked it up at RedBox. I really didn't know anything about it, but we watched it last night.
Fucking intense flick and a real-life view of how some of the real proles exist in today's society.
It's not really a guy film, but if you want a glimpse into how some other people live their lives, pick it up sometime.

My last few BluRay selections have been:
21 The Express Righteous Kill LA Confidential
I watched a bit of a movie on a 52" 3D-HDTV at Best Buy in Chicago on Friday. Looks like I'm going to be an early adaptor.

Update: the wife and I thought it was "meh". Not really sure why it garnered so much attention other than the fact that it brings to light the fact that there are some fucked up people in the world and some people have a tough life through little to no fault of their own (as if we didn't know that already). The actress playing Precious did a pretty decent job for someone new to acting. But the overall directing and movie as a whole was only average or slightly above in our opinions. Not a BAD movie by any means, but I guess we expected a bit more. I guess I would give it a 2.5 stars out of 5. Something along those lines.... On a side note, I am pretty stoked that Avatar comes out on BR this week. I have not bought a movie for a long-assed time and was very impressed with Avatar especially considering the hype around it when it came out.
