Can Vulari or Demi or someone on here please tell me what the blue fuck I just watched? Because as I have it Robocop runs a train with margaret thatcher and a janky terminator dude and captain america or whoever wanted to like go talk with the architect of the matrix in bizarre bioshock trainland.
Weird. It got good reviews from what I saw. You're saying it sucked?
I haven't watched this but I will watch it and give you a reading that does not deviate from incorrect thought. When called upon to serve we must answer the call. :american
Harvey Weinstein was right--it did need about 20 minutes cut from the beginning.
Snowpiercer - feeling like a shitty Asian movie fan, because uh, erm, maybe it could stand to have 15 - 20 minutes chopped from it. it's not like the characters they're developing are all that great. It's not a subtle film at all. good acting, interesting (if polemic) concept. Everyone who acts in it is p good (chris evans included), but the script and overall arc of the story isn't especially interesting and the ending (which is supposed to inspire hope) is a huge downer if you think about it for more than a minute.
urgh.
oh well.
I have t say that the scene where they're shooting through the windows from one side of the train to the other might be the stupidest thing I've seen in a film all year.
The fuckery is its best quality. so if that doesnt appeal to you, the movie wont either. thought the plot twists were cool, in the wtf sorta way. i also like this movie as an alternative to the US-comic-book-adaptation trend. i thought captain america 1 and 2 were boring, safe, pieces of shit, for example. and Tilda Swinton, god bless her for doing this role, she kills it, damn near steals the film.
If you liked it though, Korean action films in general have been making entertaining shit like this for a decade.
i don't mind an unbelievable, ludicrous, contrived korean morality situation, like the vengeance trilogy. fuck suspension of disbelief...easily the dumbest, most overrated concept in criticism. this just wasn't an interesting set up and was way more action flick with some thought sprinkles on top.
