I mean, I expected this to be bad going into it but this... this was something else.
So I've just seen the english trailer for this and they are selling it as if it's such a comedic laughfest?? That is such a shame since many ppl will watch this with totally wrong expectations and will be "disappointed". Something the movie has absolutely not deserved since it's such an incredible human drama... too bad, really. I enjoyed it wholeheartedly, esp. with that ending.
Well that escalated slowly... but hot damn, what an interesting movie. And a whole soundtrack consisting of M83 songs? Yes please!
Ah bummer, I did enjoy the first movie quite a lot but this...? This just wasn't funny at all to me. It just felt like a 2 hour long Family Guy episode, and a pretty bad one at that. The only time I laughed out loud was the part were they suggested depressing things to the comedy improv guys. :/
The most influential sci-fi movie that never got made.
This is an amazing documentary and Jodorowsky is an incredible person. The ensemble he created for the movie which ultimately failed to get produced was astonishing and influenced so much in the future... to think that Alien would've probably never been made (like it was) without all what came from this... Amazing...
Really, REALLY pretty indeed. I can hardly recall a recent movie that had such brilliant set-, costume- and art-design in general. Very well worth a watch even if only for that.
I guess I've seen a different documentary than jontstaz, since I didn't notice anything glorifying meaningless killing in this. So much glory in this, grown man crying after their friends have been shot, blowing up kids and innocents by accident, them dancing and having fun to silly eurobeat songs, living for months in utter shitholes... yeah, so much glory, so much 'murica.
It's a shocking display of reality rather... the complete opposite of glorifying and what not. Condemning this because of 2 lines uttered by a soldier after he got "revenge" for shit that happened to their friends before? That's just silly. You wouldn't wish to be in their shoes and go through the same crap.
Corny and cheesy but yeah... can't really complain. We need more hollywood movies with BoA, ok?
Still loved it. So entertaining, colourful and creative that I can easily stomach the "brute force cute" they are putting on sometimes. MAYBE not as good as the first one but I still had a lot of fun, lots of laughs and all that. :]
Eh... a bit too much I'd say. Convoluted for the sake of it. But yes, as others mentioned, great soundtrack!
Still one of my favourite chinese fairytales even if it's been ripped to shreds elsewhere.
Yes, some of the CGI, esp. in the beginning, may be incredibly bad but there are such beautiful and imaginative scenes in this movie that might take your breath away.
After rewatching it today I still believe that besides all it's flaws it's just an entertaining and mesmerizing picture.
It's really not a good sign when I fall semi asleep while watching an action movie. o_O
Sure, there was a whole lot of damage done, esp. in the car chase but beside that it was so ridiculously stupid, riddled with bad plot and story points and overall just a pretty bad movie.
Hands down the worst of the Die Hard franchise.
Haha, what a silly movie. But honestly? I felt pretty entertained. Some really nice and mindless action which made me laugh out loud a few times. As said by others before, nothing you'd watch again but if you like action movies, nothing you would turn off half way through the movie either.
That said, I love Kim Jee-woon's Korean movies and this certainly was not up to his usual high standards, but I guess he made the best out of rather crappy material to begin with and his hand certainly shows. Arnie was fun as the old law man but it gets old rather quickly.
Lets see what Kim Jee-woon and also Arnie deliver next.
Haha yeah, the German title is indeed better.
But as said before, still a very funny movie. Holds up well and Eddie Murphy is just a hoot as always!
Not worse than the original but just as bad.
You know, this movie holds up pretty well.
I've seen it in the cinema 5 years ago and just again now. Still highly entertaining, fantastic and imaginative action sequences and just lots of fun from start to end.
Those butt-hurt by the "bad comic adaptation" can kiss my ass, just enjoy it for what it is - a nice action movie that doesn't take itself too seriously.
Still looking forward to the sequel. :]
Pretty neat remake or rather new adaptation of the comic! And Olivia Thirlby.
What a brilliant marvel in stop-motion. <3
I HOPE THAT BOTH YOUR LEGS GET BROKEN.
asdfgjhkl Certainly one of my favourite animated movies! All those wacky ideas, the whole art design... fantastic!
