Hate it, Really?


I can't figure out all the dislike for this film. I felt it was a brilliant piece of movie making.
-The writing/story, was light hearted and hillarious; I found all the humor to be perfect, and right on beat. While the drama and romance kept a balance which kept me interrested and entertained. I couldn't wait to see in what kind of mess the cast would find themselves next. From hillbilly swampfolk, to a conflicted, and unexpected family reunion. I was entertained from start to finish.
-The Cinematography was beautiful. I thought the work was exceptional and the dream sequences were as disturbing as they were funny and mesmerising.
-The Direction was great, and every montage, extended dialogue, and cut scene to a different storyline was perfectly placed, and kept the pacing, while still providing the film with the nescacary information to complete the story.
-The Editing also falls under the same compliment, with the adition of very few, if any mistakes. It had none of the slips one sees so much in cinema today. The attention to detail in this regard was incredible.
-The cast was amazing, from the casting direction to the acting, I was sold on everything. The performances were demure and flawless, Dramatic and funny; I felt drawn into the characters, and their indavidual stories.
Plus: Billy Drago! The man played John Bly, for crying out loud. Need I really say more?!?!

In all, I felt it was a great film with plenty of "rewatchability." I always enjoy sharing it with people who have never seen it before. It always gets a good laugh, which has made it a welcome addition to my DVD collection.

Your opinions make me feel bad inside.

You were a little harsh in your review.
I mean you didn't have to bash it so badly.

Your line that, "The acting was trite and not fit for the Sci-Fi channel." Wow that takes balls.

I'm not sure I agree with you when you said, "The film impossibly tried way too hard with no substance to build on to begin with." I mean it wasn't that bad. Well yes it was bad, but not that bad....okay it was that bad.

Your final comment about how, "The contrived style of filming made Stanley Kubrick throw up in his decaying mouth.", and "Viewers of this vile garbage should jam glass into their eyes before initial viewing." Those comments were just over the line.

Great review! :)

BanningZ's must have gotten into Ricky Williams' stash. He sold it off to you after the random testing started, didn't he? That's cool buddy, whatever helps the days go by, enjoy and keep feeling good.
