Or the dullness comes from the watcher. Any movie is interesting if you ask the right questions

Eh, Wreckminster deserves two pop corns more than zero, maybe even 2.5 but because I laughed at the comment

I liked the scene where they walked around for 145 minutes.

Thank God you are talking about a certain Wreckminster Harmonies and not about Werckmeister Harmonies.

But srsly, that was my reaction:

Dammit, if I had posted at the right time I could have been in a GIF!



Werckmeister Harmonies is a great movie but have no problem with someone giving it 0. What I don't get though is why someone would even bother watching a 2.5 hour Hungarian arthouse movie that is so far out of their comfort zone if they don't have the capacity to enjoy it. Seems like a massive waste of time

Yeah, the film definitely isn't for everyone...but a
is just wrong. It means the film is void of any artistic merit whatsoever. That's just my opinion though.



All good people are asleep and dreaming.

It's on Roger Ebert's Great Movies list.

I watch arthouse films all the time.

You are correct, it was a massive waste of time.



Sorry if I'm rude but I'm right

Didn't know he was such a LEGIT critic.

I watch arthouse films all the time.
Then your reaction and preposterous rating are even weirder.



Sorry if I'm rude but I'm right
I didn't rate a single movie
. The sheer fact somebody actually made an effort of making a film deserves a
. To rate zero popcorns films like Hausu or Werckmeister Harmonies is simply to be ignorant.



Yeah, I don't think so. A
is as relevant as a
I am not rating effort, I am rating my enjoyment. Granted I don't give out a lot of
because of the simple fact that usually I would not make it to the end of a movie that I am not enjoying on any level. It is a MOVIE rating, no extra points just because it was made. That's just ignorant.



Sorry if I'm rude but I'm right
It's from

Oh, wait...
I am rating my enjoyment
I'm done.



Dont worry Loner, I got the same reaction when I rated House
The berating will end.
IMO, that's a bit unfair. This is a forum for discussion so people are discussing. Personally, if I don't want to discuss my thoughts on a film I won't post them on a public forum.

His comments show a desire to be controversial so he is getting the correct response.

Really? Your comments show that you approach films with a "here we are now, entertain us" mindset which simply doesn't fit with watching arthouse films all the time. Films like Tarr's require you to invest in them and to think about the images and the themes being presented.

Of course there is no requirement for anyone to actually do that which is why it seems like a waste of time to watch them if your approach simply won't allow you to enjoy them.

Which arthouse films have you seen and enjoyed?

That's fair. I would just change that to some correct response.



Sorry if I'm rude but I'm right
Go to Louvre to see Mona Lisa and rate it
, because it wasn't entertaining.
