So this movies really ennoyed me. If you think this movie is deep and thrilling... i dont know. Do you watch a lot of movies?

Part 1
Dialogue dialogue dialogue.
Weird RANDOM dialogue so we dont see what we are suppose to look at.
Dialogue dialogue dialogue.
Crazy ramblings
Dialogue dialogue dialogue
Something interesting is happening? Well, lets turn us away because random dialogue.
More crazy ramblings

Step 2
Someone is actually bored as i am and leaves the party
After 40-50 min most of us knew.. Oh so its the last supper. Food or wine is poisoned. (20 min later) why are they dragging this on?

Repeat part 1
And it goes on for 1:20 min before you get som slow ass reactions of people dying and a gun that everyone ignores for some reason.
You smack it across the floor, first instinct is *beep* run at him.. get the gun...

Part 3
The only part i love is the part with the surving gay fella. "Hi, my husband died. Well you and your husband killed my husband and my friends, and tried to kill me, but you just stabbed me. Wait? Your dying wish is to lay outside? Sure ill help you out.

Its really hard feeling bad for these characters since none of them actually are relatable and for some reason are acting like aliens.

So what can be defined as good in this movie? The acting? The?......

I guess you don't like the style.

This movie had some of the best acting I've seen this year. It was tremendously sublime and terror was on the table in every smile they made from the start. I was nailed to this movie the entire run. The death in the air was so palpable to me, I was wondering what would happen 10 seconds ahead.

It's an anti-action genre. I sincerely wish there were more movies like this one out there. Every second I felt I wasn't seeing something scripted. It felt real.

But to each his own. If you found it boring, why not. You were looking for something else entirely.
