who's looking forward to this movie? when I first saw the trailer like six months ago, it looked ridiculous... but then i read the comic, which is among the darkest i've ever seen. if you dig comics, pick up the trade of this one. it's the shit. but while the source material seemed sweet, the movie looked like it was just raping it. then i saw the "making of" featurette online, which is packed with awesome shots, and faith was restored.
the movie takes great liberty modifying the story, although, if they hadn't, it'd just play out like a hard R Hellboy... and from what i've seen, fuck it, this movie is going to rule.

here's seven minutes of the movie, pretty ridiculous chase scene

here's the international red band trailer

here's the featurette. if you're remotely interested at this point, watch this

While the trailers looked pretty far fetched, and the physics of curving a bullet made me want to shy away...
Morgan Freeman and Angelina Jolie in the cast pretty much sold me on seeing it.
It looks like one of those movies that will hopefully keep me entertained enough to over look the ridiculousness.

I mean, I am not huge on Angelina Jolie, but the movie seems interesting.

just saw it. it's kind of bizarre that this is what they got from the source material. they kind of just throw the comic's storyline out the window save a few scraps.
that said, this movie stomps balls. probably my favorite movie of the year thus far.
oh, and p.s.
at one point, Angelina Jolie drives a Datsun 510 sedan with a pink dildo shifter. clearly, this movie was made to pander to Zilvia. go see it.

Well, when you think about it, having knives coming out of your hands, aliens in red underwear and turning into a huge green monster (literally) when you get mad is pretty far-fetched too.
But, you're a mod so I'll let it go..... :p

Once you get past how unrealistic 90% of the stuff is, it is a very good movie to watch. I would definetly recommend seeing it, and was worth going to the midnight show for.

Disappointed by the lack of frontal nudity on Angelina Jolie's part.. but a pretty decent and entertaining movie.. I'd give it a B and a definite "check it out."

Just came back from the midnight showing and some early breakfast. Angelina is still hot; too bad she couldn't make full use of that R rating :naughty: . Oh well, movie as a whole was actually a lot better than I expected. I give it a B/B+ish rating. Good stuff.

Was that sarcasm? Sarcasm is really hard to pick up over the Internet!
But judging by the movies you would have rather seen (because they're so much more believable right?), I'm gonna say you were being sarcastic lol

slider2828
06-30-2008, 06:04 PM
Exactly what Vision garage was saying it is just detached from what they can do and can't do. I don't want to say too much as people might not have seen the movie. Its just little inconsistent stuff that makes it annoying. I think there are better shoot em up movies out there such as "Shoot em up" with Clive Owen. Much better than this movie....
Bobafreak
06-30-2008, 06:18 PM
shoot em up was a good movie but i figured it would be fake and unrealistic especially with the whole curve ball bullet technique. You just have to have a imagination. Hello Matrix!! Everyone thought it was fake but you saw people trying to jump walls, wearing trench coaches and the whole nine.
jimmytango00
06-30-2008, 06:23 PM
^Well, the matrix was different, nothing was reall, so it made sense that they could bend the rules, just like anyone can when they're in a dream.
I thought Wanted was great, in a sense they werent normal, their body produced more adrenaline than the average human. Im sure we can all agree that we do some pretty amazing shit when we have an adrenaline rush. Some stuff was over the top, but thats hollywood.
i give it a B+

Angelina had it.....Mr.X had it.....Cross had it.....
When Angelina was laying on the hood of the viper, it showed her point of view and her vision was pulsing....just like Wesley and Mr. X.....
And seriously....why bitch about it being unrealistic?
Its based off of a graphic novel....which is basically a comic book for adults....
Why even walk into the movie with hopes of it being realistic?
That being said, the movie was BADASS. I saw it twice. Enjoyed every minute of it....good music too.

I saw it last night, and I watched it and kept saying "This is ridiculous..."
WITH A HUGE SMILE ON MY FACE.
Come on, if you saw the previews and was even tempted to see this movie, you could tell it was going to be over the top ridiculous.
The movie would've been gay if the only unrealistic thing they did was curve bullets.
I love how she jumped the Viper and none of the suspension arms got bent, if anything THAT is the most unrealistic part. Not to mention driving it around with 2 tires popped like its nothing.
My friend has a Viper on 295s and he says he can't get it to grip up when he's pushing it, so there's no way that thing would even be feasible to drive missing one rear tire.

the movie was worth my 7 bucks. maybe because i watched it at a drive in, and then stayed parked and watched the hulk right after.

I watched it last night. I thought it was cool. Leave all the bullshit at the door, go in with an open mind and take it all with a grain of salt and enjoy the movie.
Angelina looked pretty damn old in a few parts of this movie though... sad.
All in all I thought it was pretty bad ass, the head shots were gnar gnar binks.

I didn't like the plot twist at all. That actually ruined the movie completely for me. All of the action sequences, which were most of the movie, were good but I really just got turned off by how the plot twists and the fact that the last 5 minutes of the movie was way too......cliche? (not necessarily the word im looking for but people who saw it you get where im going)
Another thing that really turned me off is did anyone else just think the entire time....
fight club w/guns + office space = this movie
BTW, I know I'm bumping a week old thread. Sorry I'm late and uncool.
