It is funny how in the past we all wanted our TV shows to become movie standard, and now we want movies to have the time to tell stories over an entire series. This would work perfectly. Several arcs over seasons. *Major Character* dying would have been the ideal Season 1 finale. The end of this movie a finale for ending Season 2. Toototabon! It is a world I'd like to delve into more. Jack's history in plastic bags, the DeWitt family, getting up under those feathers... The scene is meant to be how Cliff remembers the incident with Bruce Lee, of course he will remember himself being heroic and Lee being a pompous ass. People should stop reaching for the perceived offence. I was expecting it to be mistaken identity, the Manson followers see Dalton's car in town, trail it back to Cielo and then attack the wrong house. The ending was incredibly satisfying. Where were all the people back then who now say that women have been held back and are only just being given strong roles? Exactly, it isn't like they just called him along and rescued him from NJ just for a catch up and jokes. The daughter absolutely was. Typical modern flawless female character - knows everything, solves every problem, underestimated by the one-dimensional males... She wants to be a smart scientist, the brother can juggle. Every knowledge share came with her correcting the brother or Colin Farrell. Found her quite annoying because of this. Why can't there be positive characters with flaws or weaknesses like normal people? Or an equal share of exposition, instead of it all being front-loaded on one character - thus making them seem like a focus-group generated box-ticking cypher for the current Hollywood agenda. Cinema was empty here in Paris. Maybe 20-25 people in. Shame as it was a really nice little film. Marketing and hype is all focused on superhero movies and the agenda-based movies with a social cause. Good old fashioned entertainment like this doesn't stand a chance of being a success. The mother said her parents had contacted her via the internet and invited the kids, Pop Pop said they had arranged it so Grandma could have the experience of having grandkids as she had put her own children in suitcases and drowned them in a lake. They set up the visit so knew when the kids were meant to arrive and could prepare the sign. I assume the real grandparents talked about their daughter and grandkids - even though they didn't see them - to the inmates at the psychiatric hospital. This film confirmed my atheism. If there was any kind of God he would have sent a hurricane through that island of self-absorbed fuckwits when he had them as sitting ducks. View all replies >
