Editing BADLY needed

Can someone who isn't a shill for this movie or a overhyper fan of the stars get this into decent shape? Opening graphs should be short, all the reviews need to be moved into a critical reaction section.

Done. Could still use a trim, though, to edit down the reactions. --Ckatzspy 08:13, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

Lead section

Regarding the use of the phrase "award-winning" in the opening sentence of the lead section, I do not think that it is appropriate per WP:LEAD. First of all, the phrase is vague; what award, and what kind of award? It does not specify a difference between Best Picture at the Academy Awards and Best Summer Film at the Teen Choice Awards. WP:LEAD states, "The article should begin with a straightforward, declarative sentence that, as briefly as possible, provides the reader who knows nothing at all about the article's subject with the answer to two questions: "What (or who) is it?" and "Why is this subject notable?" Also, "Do not tease the reader by hinting at startling facts without describing them." This is why the specific addendum was added to MOS:FILM; a lot of articles erroneously start out this way. Same with the usage of taglines and their promotional language. —Erik (talk • contrib) 21:54, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
