Quote: Let me tell you how awful it was.

Now, I'm a sucker for those kinds of films. Terry Gilliam should of never made this movie. Even my friend was disapointed. I only lasted 20 minutes in this film.

Not to pick on Tony, but can you really tell the quality of a movie by only seeing the first 20 minutes of a movie?

Personally, I've never understood walking out of a movie.  I have never done this is my life.  And yes, I have seem some awful movies in the theater.  I just have to stay to the end to make sure they are completely awful.

The Brother Grimm wasn't a terrible movie.  Just overwhelmingly mediocre.  It was a real disappointment from someone like Gilliam.

I hope he takes the money from this and makes something REAL good like the old days i.e. Brazil

But I thought Girl With A Pearl Earring was great.

Am I the only one that liked Taxi?

Yesterday, I saw Red-Eye. It was awesome. 9/10.

HAHAHAHA! ZING!

I'll still eventually see it on DVD, or if my friend can get me in for free. It looks decent. I'm expecting the highest of a 7/10.

See The 40-Year-Old Virgin. You won't regret it. 9/10

I saw Red-Eye, but it cut off at the last 10 minutes so I don't know how I'm gonna view the rest. I got my money back though. 9/10 until that point.

However, if I were given a life or death question, I'd go with Virgin, without hesitation.

I just saw it today actually.  I wasn't expecting it to be Gilliam's GREATEST work as usual.  I had a feeling it would be mediocre at best.  Being that I've read nothing but bad word of mouth about studio and the Weinsteins giving Gilliam crap about filming.  So I thought it was entertaining.  Not great as I expected.  Definitely, not as good as his usual style of film-making.  Think he could have spent more time developing something along the lines of his expertise.  Although I felt it had it's Monty Python-esque moments.  The idea of the film had potential, but, oh well.  I'm not complaining though.  I think it could've ended up worse.

The Brother's Grimm review Yesterday, I was able to go to a 8:00 showing of the Brother's Grimm. I went with my friend who is a huge Terry Gilliam fan. After 7 years he waited for it. I wasn't expecting much of it, but it looked like a good movie, so I went with him.

Let me tell you how awful it was.

Now, I'm a sucker for those kinds of films. Terry Gilliam should of never made this movie. Even my friend was disapointed. I only lasted 20 minutes in this film. I'm finally gonna be able to see Red Eye or the 40 Year Old Virgin today because I got my money back, but that was a waste of time that I will never be able to get back.
