Sooo boring
I mostly just liked the last 20 min
shareI mostly just like the entire movie.
Does IMDB hate apostrophes?

When you call a movie "boring", don't expect anyone to take you seriously.
A movie can have a lot of problems that are objectively detected, convenient or unoriginal writing, bad acting, problematic direction, unfitting cinematography, poor editing, etc. Devil's Backbone didn't have any of this.
So, the problem is your problem. Maybe you don't particularly like drama+horror genre mix. Maybe you are used to ADHD action movies. Maybe you are suffering from ADHD. Whatever's the problem, it's not the movie's.
Why are you attacking me. I just thought it was very boring. Voicing my opinion on a message board. Calling someone adhd isn't much of an opinion
shareI most certainly haven't attacked you or accused you of anything, I merely tried to speculate the problem. Movies can't be "boring". They may have slower pace than you can handle, but this still is not the movie's problem and 95% of the times, this slow pace favors and highlights other aspects of a movie, mostly its artistic roots.
The point is that Devil's Backbone didn't even have a slow pace, which is the reason I don't see how you would call it "boring".

dude.... the person said it was boring. lay off. they were just stating an opinion and you go all roeper on their azzzz.
i thought the movie was pretty good.
Although unlike OP i enjoyed the movie, I still feel the need to voice my support for him and mention that your comments are utter rubbish.
I most certainly haven't attacked you or accused you of anything,
That's actually the only thing you have done.
I merely tried to speculate the problem.
No, you didn't. This isn't genuine speculation and you know it.
Movies can't be "boring"
Oh, really? This is a fact, right? Not an opinion, right? Ever occurred to you that there can't be any objective judgment on any form of art? Saying movies can't be boring is like saying all movies are awesome, or that a movie can't be "entertaining" or "thrilling" or "disappointing". Nonsense.
They may have slower pace than you can handle
That's like saying all forms of art are perfect and beautiful and any flaws that could be found in it by any subjective observer is necessarily a flaw in the subject's nature itself and not in the art. Nonsense.
but this still is not the movie's problem
Still not? As far as i'm concerned, you haven't demonstrated anything yet.
95% of the times
I'd like to see you back up that statistic you just pulled out of nowhere. And this obviously is also a fact, not an opinion.
this slow pace favors and highlights other aspects of a movie, mostly its artistic roots
You try to add seriousness and credence to your post by using formulas such as "mostly" and "95%" etc, but to the astute observer, it is obvious that your arguments are lacking substance. The fact that slow pace may, or may not, "favor and highlight other aspects of a movie" is again only your opinion and not the fact your condescending answers claim it to be.
which is the reason I don't see how you would call it "boring".
Exactly, you don't see. That's the operative word once again, your "opinion", not an objective reality. Just because you don't see, doesn't mean others don't or can't.
Stop thinking your opinion is an objective truth and stop being so condescending. And no, i didn't think the movie was boring or slow at all, gave it a 7/10, but that doesn't mean i don't realize that whatever i might think of it, it remains nothing more than a relative truth with no pretension to objectivity whatsoever.
People who don't like their beliefs being laughed at shouldn't have such funny beliefsī² share
You did attack me by insinuating I have ADHD
sharei mostly slept through it's entirety....
