DirtyLarry Veteran Posted May 19, 2012 Veteran Share Posted May 19, 2012 3/5 - Chloe loves her dodgy roles! :| Just watched this with my wife, total blah. I do not mind slow artsy movies, but yeah, this one did nothing for me other than make me think there was some inappropriate things going on. If the point of the movie was to make people feel completely uncomfortable, they did achieve that with smashing success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtyLarry Veteran Posted May 19, 2012 Veteran Share Posted May 19, 2012 yeah it was a bit wrong seeing Chloe do and say some of the things considering her age Exactly, and even if she is older than the character she played, the movie starts off at her 13th birthday party, so she is damn young. It just felt incredibly wrong to have a 13 year old girl in the situations she was in, even if it is a movie, and even if 13 year old girls are indeed in those types of situations, which I do not doubt that they are. Would have been much easier tolerate if she was say 17. I do get the whole point of it all, basically it is all about even if she is 13 she does in fact face very adult situations, I do get that, but it just seemed to push the envelope of decency IMO, and I am honestly pretty tolerant of people pushing the envelope of decency and do no doubt know it can serve a purpose. That I believe is probably my biggest issue with the movie itself, I am not sure overall what the whole purpose was. I have some theories naturally, but as I said, I definitely did feel uncomfortable watching some of the scenes. As I write all of this I realize the people behind this movie just pretty much achieved what they set out to do, and that was have people discuss these facts. So I guess in that regards it is a successful movie for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awsta Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 John Carter - 6/10 Journey 2 : The Mysterious Island - 6/10. Saw them both yesterday. John Carter 8/10 - I was really surprised I would enjoy another Disney film. Journey 2 Mysterious Island 7/10 - It was so so, anyway it's The Rock. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Order_66 Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 John Carter 6/10 The devil inside 3/10 Devil inside was terrible, I only give it a 3 because Isabela was hot and the overall story line was actually pretty good. John Carter was good, looked sweet on my 60" 240hz Samsung, over the top special effects but could have used better character development especially concerning the alien "gods" who claimed to be ending worlds without intervention, who were they? where did they come from? what other worlds did they end? etc etc, the movie goes into it slightly but not near enough IMO.

The Guvnor Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 The Grey : 4/10 Filmed well, but seemed to lack any REAL script or storyline. Just couldn't stop yawning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyLarry Veteran Posted May 28, 2012 Veteran Share Posted May 28, 2012 Me and my wife had a quintessential Lazy Sunday since we have off tomorrow thanks to the holiday, so went on a bit of a movie watching spree today. Safe House - 8/10 Actually a pretty damn good action thriller. Denzel is the man. :laugh: The Pact 3/10 Such a cliched horror movie. Plot had more holes than a golf course. Just awful. Take This Waltz - ??/10 I put question marks for the score as we turned it off about 50 minutes in. Incredibly slow and as such had no interest in continuing to watch it. Tomorrow should be another movie day. Day off, going to be hot as all hell, so will probably watch 2-3 more movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
