If you liked this film chances are....


You don't know a polished turd when you see one. Just because something looks good, doesn't mean it is good. Just because dialogue sounds like its 'deep' or 'witty' doesn't mean it is. This film is nicely shot, cut and for the most well directed - the green screen is also nicely blended.

Witty? well first of all that's your own observation entirely because you're assuming that fans of this think it's "witty and cool" when generally it's the entire plot & theme altogether.

Secondly, the dialogue isn't "deep" to you because you don't get anything from it. The point that you're missing is that many people DO get something from those words. I did, and it inspired me in many ways to look at myself. The film does have a beautiful look to it. All that is, is icing on that cake we like a lot.

There's nothing to get. Polished turd - nothing more.

Again, that's your own opinion. Answer me this, WHY would you spend so much time on this board if you dislike this movie?? Seems like a gigantic waste of time to me.

reply

Excuse me! Just because YOU can't put YOUR ego into submission long enough to be able to teleport and make thugs shoot themselves because they see that they'll never achieve the freedom from their egos, doesn't mean no one can!

^^^NICE...Great movie for folks with auditory hallucinations. I loved it. Ego is real folks. More real to some more than others. Ego, Devil, Drugs...whatever...The point is you are in control. They're called second thoughts for a reason.

So you're saying that this is style over content?

Kinda like Sin City or 300.
