He's poor. He's rich. He's enlightened. He's educated. He's a crack shot. He stands down a mob (with the help of his wise and brave children). Where was the Sheriff? No need for a Sheriff when you've got Super Lawyer.
If this is the best Scotland has to offer...Choose life, choose a movie with a story and some redeeming social value. By the way, principal narrator, it's 'three piece suit' not 'three piece suite',(Soot not sweet).
I can't relate the alleged lovers in this movie? I mean I wasn't born in the 30s, I'm not a soldier so I was never in any wars (haven't we seen enough WW2 stories by the way?) and of course I don't have any family as of yet.
The little town with all those children was actually played by grown men. It's stupid to think we'll believe they're children. Another thing I hated was that it's telling a story about four people, and three of them aren't even real. One is a bear, one is a scarecrow and one is a robot.
It is filled with violence that serves to get the oh-so-new idea of a social satire through. Because, you see, without it the viewer won't understand. He won't understand the idea of mixing English with misused and twisted Russian words. He won't understand that the Music line is supposed to be thought-provoking and not just stupid: ah, Beethoven and the Nazi, Beauty and the Beast, whatever.
Hugh Grant, Emma Thompson the bloody lot! All in one film. Makes me sick.
It's so senselessly, meaninglessly cruel that I couldn't watch it myself, let alone show to my kids. The sick obsession with bloody vengeance ('Prepare to die! Prepare to die! Prepare to die! Prepare to die!' ad infinitum) is immoral almost to the point of absurdity.
The fight scene at the end is a rip of power rangers just cheaply done. The only reason why this movie is praised is because of Robert Pattinson but he just gives a really bad acting and along with a silly big square head.
Apparently the moral of the story is that you can't control a zoo filled with dinosaurs. You can control a regular zoo filed with dangerous animals, but for some reason dinosaurs are tricky. What?!
The far too long and frequent mouse vignettes detracted and cost the movie momentum, there is no need to show a guy pee 10 times in the movie, we understand that it hurts when he pees, enough already!
The shark in the movie is as twice as big as a normal shark and he's so smart. Spielberg is one of the worst directors ever. The shark gets out of traps.
I simply wish all the characters could be slightly more three dimensional. Dolores was terribly despicable and unlovely and the protagonist was nothing but a psyche in the movie, not to mention the character building of the script writer.
...the movie would have been better served missing the entire prologue, where we were treated to Max Von Sydow ambling along dusty passageways whilst looking horrified at finding some cheap bauble from a Christmas cracker.
Plot makes no sense.. so many plot holes and blindfolds.. Rubbish.
No sense of acid whatsoever. Except the carpet pattern swirling, that wasn't bad, in the first few minutes, but I think that blew the special effects budget.
Aaron Johnson looked gay. Matthew MacFadyen was ridiculously frivolous and poor Mr. Gleeson was entirely out of place, out of his element and had less sex appeal than a rodent.
The story was so frustrating to follow It made no sense None of this would have happened this way. Kids aren't born evil. No parent would let their kid get away with the things they did.
Couldn't they find someone who knows the least little bit about makeup ? If the makeup doesn't work nothing works . The comedy doesn't work . The sentiment falls flat . Everything hinges on believing the characters .
Her husband hides 20 years of letters from her sister in Africa? Sure he doesn't destroy them, he just keeps them hidden. And sure her sister isn't smart enough to send some of them to other people in the town with a note to take them to her sister- NO.
Blood, blood, blood, drinking blood, blood on teeth, blood dripping from lips. Over and over and over. Perhaps there are people who enjoy watching (presumably fake) blood all over faces and gushing out of mouths and wounds and pouring into mouths.
