Fucking Amazing!!!

Go see it as soon as it comes out, you won't be dissapointed!

Bon and I were talking about it the other day.

And we agreed. The one thing holding us back just a little bit is Daniel Day Lewis. It just seems it's Bill The Butcher from Gangs Of New York moved out west.

Maybe it's just his American accent.

Sam and I tried to see it Sunday evening, but it was sold out. That's a good sign, I guess!

Damn it, Doom, you're a motherfugging liar!



OK, maybe that's what you though -- but I think it is a real stinker!
- Pacing was too slow for me
- ending too schticky
- music too eerie, disturbing and modern for the period
- no endearing qualities to make me want to care
- no beautiful symbolism or recurring imagery like a PTA movie should have, unless I missed it completely
(although Sam and I talked about the seeping, dark corrupt nature of the oil -- I guess that counts)

What I like about PTA movies is the mix of comedy and pain, as well as a strong relationship between the plot and soundtrack -- and I missed both of those in this movie.

Oh well.

P.S.
DD Lewis' acting was indeed fine. He got the Golden Globe for it.

Ok, maybe it's time to renam this post "There Will Be Dissapointment"

Sorry Mere, I guess the movie isn't for everyone, didn't think about that.

Ha!

No, I realize I am in the minority on this one. Everyone else who has seen it seems to love it (and I mainly mean you, the Howard Stern show staff and critics.)

Exactly how I felt about Sweeney Todd!
