Too scary?

I was so excited about this movie until I saw the full trailer and saw that Nic Cage was in it. I lost all interest after that.

Apparently, so does everyone. Which is why we get so many of them. And then someone posts them here.

Longlegs

Too scary?

It wasn't scary at all. It was tedious and pretentious, with no point at all. The worst kind of modern horror flick.

Cage is barely in it.

How do you know? You didn't finish it!

I agree that that it's boring and pretentious. I'd say Nic Cage has a bit more screen time in this than Kevin Spacey had in Seven, and he spends it just acting as creepy as he can. The only disturbing elements came from sound design and editing, doing a quick cut to a jarring image and going from quiet to the standard issue super loud "eeeeeee!" scratchy string music at the same time. Old tricks. It's kind of amazing that they took that premise and made a movie that is no more disturbing than an X Files episode. You'll probably find yourself suspecting the "shocking" explanation not even halfway through, and when it comes it's delivered in a clunky expository monologue. It just feels like a Law and Order: SVU viewer's idea of a disturbing serial killer movie.

[Farmer John]

Well, this is disappointing to hear.

What's next? You're going to tell me his legs weren't even that long? Just regular length?!

Don’t ask that question if you don’t want to hear the answer

biggest disappointment of the movie.

I had a feeling it was gonna be something like that

Thief

A few too many silly slo-mo deaths for my liking, but otherwise a pretty good movie.

Robert Prosky was great. The Willie Nelson scenes were kind of strange.

[tragabigzanda]

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Thief is a goddamn masterpiece

The diner scene is great.

Yes. Michael Mann sure has a knack for great diner scenes.

I'm watching The Insider tonight, so fingers crossed there's a diner scene in that one as well (don't spoil it for me!)
