I hated Pan the first (and only) time I watched it and NCFOM pissed me off with the ending. The more I think about the movies though the more I want to re-watch them to see if I'll like them more now that the hype has flown completely away.

SPOILERS:

I must say that I too hated NCFOM because of the ending upon first viewing. But once it hit blu I watched it again, and actually really enjoyed it knowing and understanding why it ended the way it did. I also read the book and that really helped me understand more. Tommy Lee Jones was really the main character and it wasn't about Brolin, it was about his death being the final coffin in the nail of Jones' career as a sheriff. Crime continued to evolve and he just couldn't change enough to stay in the game, it was what made him realize he couldn't do it anymore. Once I understood that I really enjoyed it much more.

I can agree with No Country for Old Men and There Will Be Blood.

exactly! that nails down exactly what i feel about this movie. there are parts i like and parts i don't. i'm really on the fence with the movie and it's the first one in a long time.

the only part I like is the villain. not how he looks after he's become a hulk-like being but before. I actually don't care for the special effects.

you have to understand... its almost an underground movie... its a cult classic like donnie darko is

Mr. HiDef · 11-18-2008, 07:05 PM

Lacit170 · 11-18-2008, 07:14 PM

I have 30 Days of Night, but I honestly can't get through it. I've tried about three times.

Don't waste your time, trust me. If you don't like it so far, the ending will be a real letdown. I watched it once and wished I didn't.

But at least donnie darko was well made. Boondock is so sloppy.

Letoiii3 · 11-18-2008, 07:28 PM

Gone Baby Gone---first half is great, 2nd half seems like the making of documentary and I still can't decide how I feel about the ending
