I thought this movie was cool


It entertained me and was interesting to watch. That's what movies should do, no?

Signature? More like Vic Mature.

It's a pretty good movie. I don't know why people hate it so much.

reply

Because it doesn't translate right.

Yeah, I really like it, too. I first saw it in 9th grade English, and at that point it had only been out for a year or two. It blew my mind when I was 14, and it helped me understand the story a lot better than trying to read it.

So, I enjoy it. Even now I still watch it every now and then. I'll call it a guilty pleasure if I must, but I think it has enough going for it that I shouldn't have to.

Yes, I rewatched today and it's still very good IMO.
