Movies you couldn't even finish.

Get Shorty

ZzzZZzZzZZZzZZzZZ

Bone Tomahawk (2015) was the last one, I hate that current style of film making with over done irrelevant dialogue and ultra violence/gore for the sheer thrill of it. I made it to 15 minutes and off it went.

Get Shorty is brilliant, it does take a minute to get going though, you should give it another shot.

Picnic At Hanging Rock - 32 minutes in was all I could do. I hate turning off a movie after I spent that much time on it, but to me it seemed like a lot of aristocratic emptiness.

Dude, Where's My Car was spawned off a line of dialogue in The Big Lebowski... how did anyone think it would even be a good movie in the first place?

This thread is 38 pages long Gideon and started in 2004. It would be better to work backwards through the thread if you want anyone you are quoting to see your replies to them.

I wrote some kind of review on that after I viewed it (last year maybe?), but I don't know how to find it.
It is a movie I never need to try to watch again.

Picnic at Hanging Rock (1975)



I don't even know what to say about this film.
It's haunting, sometimes eerie, enigmatic, mysterious, atmospheric.
It's got some beautiful locals & cinematography. It's very "artsy."
Some of the characters are engaging at times, but I guess I'm easily frustrated by things that have no explanation and are specifically made with the intention of having no explanation.

The film made me "feel" a lot of things, so I guess it succeeded on that account, but it left me wondering what it had to say, what its message was... and on that I'm stumped.

I was intrigued by it, but I didn't "like" it as a satisfying film watching experience. I won't be seeking it out for a re-watch (unless it was for a class or analysis or something).

If you like slightly surreal mysteries wrapped in enigmas encased in a riddle, you might like this.

I'll give it a 5 for being an ethereal artsy thing set to film (or as a cure for insomnia), but I'll give it a 1.5 for overall entertainment value.

gili, i think thats how you spell it, i could not finish it at all, it was so stuped, the story line, the plot, the whole idea

I'm sorry. I can't finish it. I've tried and tried, and I can't get through it. It's too lumbering, too methodic, too pretentious. It's a perfect example of style over substance. God knows I want to like it, but...
