"Million Dollar Baby"

This movie is not only about boxing.  It is a very heart rendering thought provoking film.  You laugh you cry, you get angry and then you sit stunned at the end.
 
Everyone should see this film.  It is Makusla Cool

Grin, how much fun would that be to get to go, eh?  I haven't seen it yet, but I intend to when it comes out to video.  These days the only things I get to see in the theatres are rated PG.

It is so expensive to go see movies anymore so we usually wait for them to come out on DVD.  Can't wait to see "Baby."

The two of us go in the afternoon, also we get the Senior rates.  It cost us $20.00 for a movie, popcorn and a coke.  Taking a family of four wuld be difficult after 6 P.M.  Entertainment is way too expensive.
 
Blockbuster for $14.99 per month,  unlimited movies is a good deal Cool

You may think it's only a movie about women in the boxing league, it isn't!

I'm talking about our family of four going BEFORE 6 p.m., Luci!  It's still too expensive.  We go maybe twice a year, tops, to the movie theater.  When the next Star Wars movie comes out, we'll go see it in the theater.  That will be in May, I believe.  In December, I want to see "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe" in the theater.

I just signed up for Netflix, do you really like the "unlimited" thing?  We're gonna give it a try, see if we like it...

I just saw this movie and I think I need to see this again. The ending was just too unexpected.  
 
:SPOILER: *IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE MOVIE, AND DON'T WANT TO BE SPOILED, EXIT THE THREAD*

Clint's character (forgot the name) mercy-killed "Hillary" in the end. I was surprised that he did this. I thought it was a bit out of character, especially when I felt that he had grown to love her as a daughter. I am interested in hearing how his action "ties up" the story. It's just so sad. Can anyone explain it to me? Thanks!

 
 
I guess the WARNING wasn't helpful enough so I also hid the "ending".

JP, why did you even post the ending!  GRRRR.......................
Yes, I know why he did it, she asked him to and he loved her enough to do it.
Sometimes we have to love someone enough to let them go!
 
It is terribly rude of us to post an ending, you could have sent me a PM!
Now this movie is spoiled for all who read your post!  Shame on you! Undecided

You're kidding, right?  Did JP post the ending?   Angry I only glanced through this and saw your comment, Luci, and scrolled down straightaway.
 
It is awful to tell the ending of a movie amongst people who may not have yet seen it.
