jesus this movie is badass, and heavy

TOTALLY not what i was expecting when i went into it, outstanding cast and acting as good as ive seen out of anyone in the cast, trully

brilliant directing, and one of the best sequences ive ever seen in my life(the motel room scene with all 3 of them)

nothing more to say than watch the fucking movie

it might be at those 'selected cities' type places for now, being in miami we dont always get the nyc/la type movies, but we get the next step up down from that

if you dont get it, do DL it or get in on rental or wahtever, badass movie

Hey Kriista, Miami in da house :)

I saw the movie at Sunset Place, and while the acting was great, I felt the non-linear editing was uneccesary. It really did not add anything to the movie. But other than that, I really enjoyed it.

heh, saw it at sunset place here too, my fav theatre, tho i hate all the cheezy kids and the lines, the seats are so goddamn comfortable

the editing added OMGIAMRETARDEDCAUSEALOTISTWOWORDS i think, it gave it an overall blurry feel, without ruining the flow of the plot, like a subtle form of film cubism, seeing it at diff points/timelines/angles at once
but not in an overtly art film way

the only thing i wasnt too crazy about was the very slow build, but once the plot kicks in its great from there

Yeah, I hate some of the people that go there (occasional fight, loud, interuptions), but yup the seats are definately the most comfortable of any theater down here. My biggest problem with the place is they don't carry Whoppers, like WTF?!?! If you go there a lot then you know Theatre 22 :) 23 and 24 come in second place.
