Over the last decade there's been hundreds of better movies... but for the sake of brevity I'll look at the dvd's I've got on the local drive of this machine waiting to get copied to my server.

A Man Apart - S.C. was a LOT better
Aviator - A LOT better than S.C.
Blade Trinity - S.C. was better
Constantine - S.C. was a bit better
Darkest Knight - S.C. was INFINITELY better (damn that movie sucked)
Finding Nemo - A LOT better than S.C.
Luther - Better than S.C.
National Treasure - About as good
Pirates of the Carribian - A LOT better than S.C.
Primer - About as good
Suspect Zero - About as good
White Noise - About as good

Basically I thought S.C. was an OK movie, not bad, not great. It had some very cool things about it... but they were offset by some major weaknesses. I put it in the same category as movies that were too flawed to consider great but entertaining enough to put themselves ahead of the majority of crapola that Hollywood puts out. In other words - solidly Mediocre - which is well above average for Hollywood these days.
