^I don't think I've seen that one beginning to end though from what I have seen, yeah, it does seem to be a good movie!

Oh hell yeah. Definitely an early climax in the movie. I thought the monster was pretty cool too. But it´s the acting and the chemistry between the two young main characters which takes the prize here IMO. Elle Fanning really shines and Joel Courtney is a great actor too.

There's not actually a lot of metal to this. It's about a metal drummer who suddenly loses his hearing and then struggling with life after that. It's not what I thought it would be, but it's a good watch. Also has Olivia Cooke in it, which is a bonus.

I'm a proponent that the old west is an area of largely untapped potential for horror movies. It's sad that when a new such movie does come along it sucks as much as this one does.

Re-watched this one. I have watched it many times in the past, but I wanted my son to watch it too. I think he enjoyed it, and I hope it made him think about how priviliged we are living in a country, with only minimal crime and a good social welfare system:

Walks a fine line between genius and being a load of crap, but fortunately ends up being the former. A surprising gem.



Okay I'll be honest, I went into this not actually expecting much. Turns out it really is bloody brilliant.

I liked it. I knew the facts beforehand, but the film itself was entertaining. The murders are pretty damn grizzly though, so this is not for the faint at heart...

I quite liked it too. I went in with a few preconceptions, and it reinforced most of them.Wink

Some incredible scenes surrounded by a lot of WTF? Not sure I really got it. Loved the teen girls traffic stop though.

I´m not sure what others will think about it, but I found it a little confusing and stressful to watch. I thought it was gonna be my poison, but I just didn´t enjoy it much.

The comedy here is a little too American for my British sensibilities, but I overall enjoyed this film. Gets more and more manic as it goes along.



I was kinda assuming the backlash against this was just the usual 'major blockbuster has to suck' crowd, but it turns out that this really isn't very good. All special effects and little substance, with the usual sequel cliches that exist only to undo story progress made in the first film to needlessly prolong plot points and keep characters in the film that didn't need to be there. Easily the worst film of the Harry Potter universe.
