I just got back from it and it was surprisingly pretty good. Has a lot to do with killers and killing stuff, very Nicolaish I guess.

Go see it and tell me what you think.

It was pretty good and there was killing stuff? That's quite a review.

in other news, I just saw 'thank you for smoking' - skillfully done but nothing original. And the journalists' 'punishment' was so forced

I try not to spoil anything for you guys and since no one saw it if I spoke with spoiler tags probably no one read my post which wouldn't really change much anyways lewl.

See "In the Company of Men" it's essentially the same character squared. That film is ruthless.

I just recently bought it on sale, having had it recomended by a friend - I rather liked it. It's true that there's nothing original in it, but quite a lot of good moments and punch lines which makes it worth while.

At the same time I made the mistake of buying "The brothers Grimm", which I now only want to burn in the fires of hell. What the fuck where they thinking?

will do - if I can get ahold of it. Nice to see you sticking around.

yeah, like I said, skillfully done. However it's sometimes dangerously close to the type of film whose sole purpose is to have teh greatazt punch lines EVAR!

it's for the lolz. It's basically as worthwhile as 'thankyouforsmoking" - just a different kinda flick. It's not great, but will make fine accompaniament for your dinner. I have this special category for films: "dinner movies"

Really? I categorized Brothers Grimm as a "date rape" movie.

Gilliam redeemed himself with Tideland, in my humble opinion.

Sorry mr. atoga but I generally don't go to the movies to see those kind of movies (comedies) because my dad and I are thriller/action buffs. When it comes out on DVD i'll be sure to rent it and give you the full scoop if you still need it.

Vass: "Gilliam redeemed with Tideland"
oh ya. Neat flick indeed. 'Brazil' is still Gilliam's best, followed by 12 flowers.

i read about the movie so i think ill go see it somehow, someway.

if you liked thank you for smoking you might like that other movie where he travels in the future and everybodies stupid. well, you probably wont like it at all much if you liked thank you for smoking, but i liked them around the same muchness. similair quality, dig?

Capitalizing on a Van Hellsing-esque movie for money.

Yeah ti was pretty bad. Hugh Jackman really doesn't know how to choose the movies he plays in.
