Has anyone else seen this? I saw it this weekend and was very impressed. I don't want to spoil it for anyone but it comes off as a combo of Momento, Fight Club and the Twilight Zone. It's a psychological thriller and moves pretty well. Christian Bale is outstanding and the physical changes in him are amazing. He supposedly lost 63 pounds to play this role. Here's a link to the movie from Rotten Tomatoes for those of you interested:

Did any of you other guys see this and what was your opinion?

At first, I had thought you were referring to the Onion's Horoscope guy:

Hmm... sound interesting. I liked Memento and the fight club so this could be worth checking out.
