Truly terrible film

I thought the film was okay. Some of the skits were wildly funny and some of them fell short. Since the film is just a sequence of skits, it's hard for me to judge it as a whole. I didn't think there was anything all that brilliant about it. The humour was very intelligent at times but I wouldn't call it a work of genius. I also have to disagree with all the negative sentiments regarding mainstream films- there are many outstanding mainstream films out there.

Finally I'd like to ask people to stop being such d**che bags to each other. You sound like a complete snob when you question people's intellectual capacity, spouting off a bunch of crap about French New Wave, auteurism, and John Cassavetes so that everyone will know how knowledgeable you are when it comes to cinema. You're a bunch of nerds with unhappy girlfriends and you can lick my butt (right after you attack me for the way I contradicted myself when I attacked you for attacking other people).

This was not that GREAT a movie in my mind. I don't understand people's fascination with the ordinary-- what's so profound about people sitting around talking when they have nothing interesting to say? (I'm only referring to a few of the scenes). Yes we can all relate, and its realistic and all, but so are the CCTV tapes at the bank. It doesn't make it f*ing inspired! Maybe if I knew the director and the actors on a personal level I might appreciate it more, just like if the child in the home video taking his first steps was my own instead of my neighbor's, I'd actually give a s**t.

oh, one more thing... I neither love nore hate Marmite. It's just strange.

"I don't understand why hipster trash always have to defend certain icons that they hold dear for some reason. "Ugh, if you didn't like this movie, you're clearly an idiot, some people clearly have no taste, ugh." Shut up. I have no idea why this kind of underdeveloped garbage is allowed to harbor opinions. Apparently secluding yourself within the limits of your clique makes you an intellectual? If that's the case, keep your vast wealth of knowledge private to your group of know-it-all friends who all secretly think they're smarter than you. "

Where do they go to school to learn to talk like this? Whiny haters always have the same jargon, courtesy the Bill O'Reilly correspondence courses, I guess...

I could even agree with the point... but it's the WAY the point is made... repulsive.

Haha, yeah i like Idle Hands too! Haha.. im 16 now, i guess i just was trying to hard in the post.

Certain kind of people can feed their ego with the notion that I didn't understand this, but that's exactly the only kind of people who will think this is the masterpiece. Namely, it is about 13-21 year olds who will find something to be different by, for the lack of real persona.


I think that anyone else will either hate it, because of expecting "Spiderman vs. Terminator 5: Naked Babes Playing Beach Volley Interrupted", or find it only possible to watch, because of knowing what the real art looks like.

This was not bad, but not really good. There were few really funny stories (like Molina/Coogan sketch), and some decent acting (Cate dual role Sketch).
I hated delirium (Wu Tang and Bill Murray sketch). I couldn't understand this people.
They sound like each having a chicken stuffed up their mouth, and refusing to chew it. Bill Murray was funny, as always (a bit repetitive, as always).
But if you skip this movie, you won’t miss much. Definitely not for multiple watching, gets very boring. Also cinematography is ugly (acceptable, but not nice). Shame it is so, with such strong potential symbols (coffee and cigarettes).
In my opinion, there's nothing really greatly artistic here. You want B&W art? Go see Seventh Seal.

As someone said here, it’s not bad to see it in mildly drunk company (actually, so is starship troopers, but in a different way). Though, this is far, far away from some masterpiece quality, still not a complete wasted time.

In one word: Trivial
