BigDMcGee 3,367 Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 Don't see this movie . It is a steaming pile of horsecrap. It is just about the worst film noir movie I've ever seen. the last 45 minutes are absurd and literally nonsensical. Huge disappointment, as I love De Palma.and theis move did officailly place Scarlett Johanson as the worst actress in hollywood since denise richards. It's a good thing Johanson is so smoking hot, because she's completely worthless as an actress. Link to post Share on other sites
digitalmonkey 929 Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 All I saw was horsecrap and Scarlett Johanson and I completey agree.She should only do Metallica videos. Link to post Share on other sites
BigDMcGee 3,367 Posted September 17, 2006 Author Share Posted September 17, 2006 All I saw was horsecrap and Scarlett Johanson and I completey agree.She should only do Metallica videos.I have hated her since i saw her for the first time in ghost world. I thought "lost in translation" was good, DESPITE her wooden and lifeless performance in it. She just has this glassy, wide eyed, emotionless glazed look on her face at all times. Hate her.

Brian DePalma > BigDMcGeeGo see this movie, and tell me if you like it then. Because if you do, you're certifiably retarded. The movie literally doesn't make any sense, it has one of the worst final hour hours of any movie ever. Link to post Share on other sites

Filesharer 0 Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 sorry I know he directed scarface and the untouchables but it's not like that makes him the man or anythingOh I know. I'm saying he was good at the time he made those two films, but recently he has made a lot of turds. Link to post Share on other sites
mk 11 Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 what does it say about depalma's career when the trailers for this film hype him as "the director of scarface", which came out in 1983 and is pretty worthless? Link to post Share on other sites
ricker 0 Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Well, here's your problem! You went and saw the Black Deliah instead of the Black Dahlia...it must have been made by DePalma's equal in Mexico Jorge Depalbergo...no wonder it sucked Link to post Share on other sites
DonkSlayer 1 Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 I heard the movie was poop; I'm usually "that guy" that agrees with the average movie critic. Scarlett is good, though. Bad writing can make the best actor/actress seem like crap, and although I didn't see ghostworld, I suspect that's what happened in this movie and in "The Island." See some of Woody Allen's recent movies with her in it and I think you'll change your mind. So we liked the Illusionist? That's towards the top of my "must-see" list.

Mercury69 3 Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 I'm going to go see The Black Dahlia. I'll put in a review of my own when I do.BTW, I work with a chick who looks like Scarlett, but has an even better body (more athletic). Link to post Share on other sites
BigDMcGee 3,367 Posted September 18, 2006 Author Share Posted September 18, 2006 I saw the illusionist.. It's okay. Some really excellent acting performances.. but again, I didn't like the ending. It's like M. Night Shamalamadingdong took over dirrecting in the last 30. Good, but not great. Link to post Share on other sites

GWCGWC 83 Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 I just finished watching this on DVD and it was simply AWFUL.two thumbs and two big toes down Link to post Share on other sites
CardWarfare 4 Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 Very rarely do I rent a movie, and return it without watching the entire thing, but this movie was one of those times. I got through the first 30-40 minutes, and simply couldn't take it anymore. I turned it off and returned it that night. I'm glad to hear I didn't miss anything after I shut it off. She should only do Metallica videos.Wait... What? Link to post Share on other sites
BigDMcGee 3,367 Posted March 15, 2007 Author Share Posted March 15, 2007 I tried to warn you guys. But the Siren Song of Scarlett Johanson was too alluring. I can understand that. Link to post Share on other sites

Mercury69 3 Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 Forgot to pop in a review.Saw this a while ago. Looks good from a cinematographic standpoint, but the plot was overcomplicatingly simpleminded. Kind of like Chinatown Meets The Big Sleep Minus Valid Plot Twists Plus Transparent Attempt(s) to manipulate the viewer. An inconsequential movie. Apparently Fincher's new Zodiac is quite good, though... Link to post Share on other sites
BeaverStyle 1 Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 I had no idea what was going on in this movie... walked out of the room we were watching it an hour through.Simply horrible. Link to post Share on other sites
