Exclamation

OK right, I got this DVD for christmas and last night I decided to watch it, bad decision I watched the first 45 minutes of it and then decided I could stand it no longer and so put it off.

Main Bad Points:
1.Stupid begining
2.The audio was to loud and so you couldn't here what was being said
3.Pretty confusing

It is supposed to be a really good movie though, so what did u guys think of it? and is it worth watching the rest of it? I thought since its a 2hour and 20 min film that it could get better but if it doesnt I really cant be assed!

Cheers,
Ross

I went to see it because there really wasn't anything worth watching in the cinema's. I was expecting nothing, but it turned out to be a pretty good movie [img]smile.gif[/img]

It has been awhile, but I do believe it gets better as time progresses. It seemed a bit cliche at first, but the plot turned out to have a few surprises. I like that in a movie [img]smile.gif[/img]

Its not the best movie out there, but i liked it none the less. As dreamer said, there will be a few suprises towards the end, and i think you should watch it all the way...I never leave a movie half-watched. I always start thinking that what if it does get better. Besides, you cant truly say a movie sucks, unless youve watched the whole darned thing .

That exact same thing happened to me when i rented it. I think i too saw only the first 45 minutes or so, and then i turned it off, and took it back to the videostore to get me another movie. In the top 5 of all time lame movies, this one scores very high.

I saw it at the cinimas and while it may have been lacking at times I still enjoyed it. I am just wondering why this is in the Miscellaneous Games board and not the Film, Televesion board [img]tongue.gif[/img]

I think it was a good movie, with some quite interesting ideas in it.

lol shadowhound, I just noticed that too. I was probably half a sleep when I wrote this topic, I think I had been staring at the computer screen for 8 or so hours, so that explains it

I suppose I might aswell watch the rest and hope it gets better.
