I just tried to watch, Under the Skin, which pretty much has to be the worst movie ever.
This one stated out making me think I found the second worst movie ever. It got better, though still pretty convoluted.

If you want a tale of loony existentialism you needn't look any further.
After reading J. Hoberman's review (Nov. 14, 2006) in the Village Voice entitled "Fountain of Shame", I don't think that I can come close to matching it: Highlight -…

It has its flaws, but the triple-layer storytelling is done fairly well, in my opinion, and the special effects are AMAZING even though they didn't cost millions to make, as most CGI effects do.
The real highlight of this film, for me,…

By far one of my favorite films of all time. The music is a masterpiece and the story while complicated is beautiful. I always recommend this movie to others. It can have a polarizing effect on people but it's so worth the watch when you…

This is an absolutely dreadful movie for ignorant adolescents. It combines horrible screen writing, horrible computer animation, and everything that is wrong with modern movies for adolescent morons. If you have any appreciation of fine…

This film was a pleasant and interesting surprise. It adeptly combines romance, fictive history, sci-fi, and mystical elements in a non-linear narrative. Be sure to check out the DVD special features story on the space special…

I'll admit, I was very confused for a good portion of this movie. But I eventually caught up with what was happening. The special effects were really amazing. Hugh Jackman was really good in this as well.

This is a very slow movie, and not until I read the trailer did I get that the weird "cosmos bubble" he was in was supposed to be 26th century looking for the gateway to the afterlife. I liked the present day doctor saving wife thread -…

Great-looking film (made in a Montreal-area warehouse, apparently) but you really need to pay attention to the plot. It's more than a bit messy (rather like Cloud Atlas). I found it aimed really high, but fell short. They tried but it was…

This a real adult fantasy film with tinges of spiritualism, necromancy, sorcery and teleportation with stunning visuals anchored with minimalist music. For all that, I didn't think it had a central, graspable theme that tied the three…

epic movie with great narration, amazing soundtrack by clint mansell and a genuine sci-fi interpretation. just consider a sci-fi movie without a single cable, robot or any traditional tech representation that we are used to in every…

Difficult movie to follow. I appreciated the artistic visual components. However, I felt there was so much going on that it detracted from the movie and nothing ended up being fully developed.

One of the most Disappointing -Unwatchable films I’ve ever seen this year. Really a dumb movie. "I fast forwarded all the way." It would be a waste of money to buy.

There's definitely a lot of confusion about the plot of this movie. For the people about to watch it I'll give just a little information that may help: Two of the three storylines are fictional, one part written by Izzi, and the second…

This was pure drivel. A love story deluged with some pretty special effects (at times, and unnecessary) and a weepy wolverine (Jackman) eating tree bark, whispering and yelling. Painful to watch as it lumbered to an overlong, pointless…

This movie is visually amazing, but it never grabbed me emotionally. It is so overly stylized that it seems sanitary. It has no soul. Three stories are being told at once and I was confused throughout. Even after finishing the film I was…
