Exactly what I felt like while watching. The photography is great but the acting and dialogues, while not bad, "try too hard".
Acephalous: Filmography
Leone's (Western) masterpiece. The Western to end all Westerns.

Every time I saw that freckled-faced, curly-haired bozo with his camera hopping around, I wanted to bludgeon him to death.
Best Nolan movie ever.
The best adaptation of a Bret Easton Ellis novel to date, which is to say not very good at all.
Awful! Couldn't make it 20 minutes into this patchwork of quirkiness.
It's like watching a toddler trying to smoke a cigarette and look cool.
Anderson said it was his best, and after There Will Be Blood, it still is his best.
Awesomely captures unrequited love and jealousy. Ending is... damn near perfect.
It's too bad this guy never adapted a Thomas Pynchon novel! He'd be perfect.

I feel like I need to study modern Chinese history and economics in order to understand his movies. And drink a lot of Red Bull as well.
Don't get what is so great about this guy. He sure is campy though.
Tarr's most disappointing effort for me. All style... very little substance.
Hey I got a great idea! Let's re-make the same movie thinking somehow after Hostel and the Saw movies American audiences are going to be pummeled by my satirical art-masterpiece that shoots itself in the foot repeatedly from frame one!
Too bad there isn't an "Unlike" option. Haneke is overrated and intellectually lame.
Don't understand the fuss, and may never want to.
This is one of the most entertaining movies ever made. Exhilarating, delirious... no place for me!

Horrific and stunning. Jacobs has more visual firepower than Gaspar Noe and Darren Aronofsky and is 100 times smarter.
Absolutely masterful and touching.
I get the feeling this is what life is: tough resilience.
More people need to see this film! Fans of silent cinema and "slow" cinema, watch out!
Would be Herzog's ultimate masterpiece... had he not decided to do voice-over narration.
One of Herzog's worst. It was the "bag scene" from American Beauty recapitulated with Herzog's ponderous pondering that amounted to absolutely nothing.
It feels wrong to be a fan of a movie that hits you square in the nuts.
