Funny, laughed lots - missed large chunks of dialogue due to not being able to hear it - found myself wishing for subtitles.

Was in a Hoyts cinema. The Ford add with the 'sexy' scientists... why on earth would I buy a car designed by a group of guys who clearly don't get out much?

My *real* gripe is the way science is portrayed as being the last refuge of the socially inadequate. It pisses me off; some of the brightest, funniest and sexiest people I know are that way because of their geeky interests. Science is advanced by people who are intelligent, creative and passionate, which, I shall repeat myself by pointing out, are damn fine qualities.

Scientists are also the owners of the odd peculiar social trait - however so are people who recreationally breath glue.

You are prematurely old and bitter and probably have better taste than me.

There were explosions, toys and fast cars. I admit a plot would have helped but you can't have everything!
