Despite not being interested by the trailer I tried watching Inherent Vice last night but I had to quit after an hour. The film lost me in the first 15 minutes and I didn't get a full understanding of what was going on. It was just boring talk for the whole hour no action at all apart from a little girl on girl action which just made me want to watch porn instead.
It's funny because Paul Thomas Anderson breaks a big rule for screenwriting which is to show more and tell less and all PTA does in this movie is tell which was boring to try and listen to. I can only concentrate for so much.
I do want to see Boogie Nights, There Will Be Blood and Punch Drunk Love but apart from that I don't care. I watched the trailers for his other movies and they all boring and don't explain any part of the plot.
I watched a Wes Anderson film as well a few weeks ago that just bored me as well.
I don't get the appeal of these filmmakers.
Are their films enjoyable for casual people? or are they specifically for art nuts?
Am I too dumb to know what good Cinema is? or they are really just boring films that art people convince themselves are good?
