That's the catch, if you're still up and can't sleep, you will just have to continue watching the damn flick. Oh, it's so good.

All you guys had to do was look to the right of the IMDB page and see that it wasn't available on DVD.

It's actually the left side  :roll:
At wave level, everything exists as a contradiction. Everything is existing in more than one stage/place at any given moment. Everything must move/vibrate and constantly change to exist. Everything, including buildings, mountains, oceans and thoughts.

thats a pretty harsh review. im fine with someone disliking something, but if you're going to rip a film a new asshole, back it up with a valid reason. whoever wrote that review never gives justifiaction for his beligerantly negative opinion of the film. i feel a reviewer should be responisble enough to have OPINION backed by REASON -- only in a perfect world.

I don't really think I've ever agreed with one of his reviews before.

Yeah, I fucking hate that guy...he gave All the Real Girls a 0 too.

Forgot to put a 1 in front of it I guess. He can do whatever...his little gimmick started off uncool. I never liked him. The whole cynical critic idea sounds like a funny little idea but he's just not funny. He tends to drift into offensive a lot actually...

"Anderson's follow up to the greatly entertaining Boogie Nights is so mind-numbingly awful that, at more than twice the Witch's length it almost surpasses the disaster that dead director Stanley Kubrick left us. . ."

God, what a dick. Fine, he doesn't like Eyes Wide Shut...but a disaster? Fuck that and him...at least people will miss Stanley...

Bad review. He spoke only for the pleasure of people already convinced they hated the film. This review acts as their own relief center for being made happy again in some way. Nowhere in the review did he act as the critic and speak to the middle crowd of why this or why that for what he thinks. Funny, he mentions on how someone from the set warned it was a disaster but this critic felt he just had a bone to pick, so ignored it. Nothing in this review gives any indication his reasons for disliking it are not that either.

Doesn't look like there would be much to cut off anyway. :yabbse-undecided:
