criminally underrated.


i loved this as a kid, and now as an adult, i also see how well made this movie is. gore verbinski and all others involved did an outstanding job here. i especially love the details, like the changing portrait of the father, the silent movie segment where ernie is hit by a bus, the fantastic camera work and the fantastic score, the clever writing, hilarious acting...simply everything. it's a shame that this movie doesn't get the credit it deserves.

Flow my tears...

I agree. I watched it yesterday for the first time since I was a child and was just as (if not more) entertained.

You forgot that it was criminally predictable.

Really? Predictable? You predicted from the beginning that the brothers would change the factory into a string cheese factory?

Even the most primitive society has an innate respect for the insane.

More or less, yes.

I haven't seen this in a long time, but I remember enjoying it.
