I use metacritic.com for movie/game ratings.

I find that they typically rate movies a little low (it is just an average of several different reviewers- there is always someone who doesn't like a movie- and this someone brings the average down)

It is nice having all of the reviews on one page in front of you.

I saw this movie in the theater when it came out last year, and I re-viewed it on HBOHD last night. I think many of the elements of the movie are enhanced after a second viewing. This is the kind of movie that tells the story moreso through the visuals than via dialogue. I also read that this movie is noted for its long takes on certain scenes. Excellent use of sub and surrounds during the attacks!
