Alrighty, I just saw this movie with my parents and I have to say I hated it. I thought it was really really boring. The only thing I liked about it were the two guys that were also in Boogie Nights. I can't think of their names right now. They were the highlight of the movie to me. Toro did a good job acting, as did all the other actors. I just thought it was really boring. Most likely just because I'm a teenager. There were parts of the movie where I thought this is getting good(mainly towards the end), but those parts didn't last long. I kept hoping something would happen to redeem itself to me, but I only kept looking at my watch.
I can see why critics think it is such a good movie, but I just dont think it was all that great. And I hated the camera work. I saw the making of the movie, and how the director was so into the movie that he went around with the camera on his shoulder half the time, and at the time I thought that was pretty neat. But it didn't work for this movie. The only movies I think where a handheld camera does work, is when the perspective of the camera is supposed to represent a first person perspective, but that was never called for in this movie.
Has anyone else seen this? What did you think?
