nicely done! all the stories are quite different, and so many of them – reminded me a bit of Night On Earth, although there’s a rather saccarine ending. just the variety of styles and stories kept me interested. Steve Buscemi is so my boyfriend.
the unending beauty of its wrongness gives meaning to my life. hands-down, the funniest movie i’ve ever seen in my entire life.
first 3/4 of it are terrific (although sad), and the awkward, lame ending nearly derails it. some of the CGI is sub-par, but very minor compared to the post-apocalyptic glory of the rest. disappointing; a taste of honey and all that.
VERY, VERY GORY – Burton has obviously been studying his anatomy texts. great singing, gorgeous Burton settings and costumes, and condenses the stage show rather nicely. . i consider a movie a success when Alan Rickman is the weakest link. and GREAT job, Borat! high-fiiive!
very densely packed with bizarre hilarity – you really get your Cusack’s worth of strangeness. Extremely quotable (and I do).
pretty good, surprisingly. the CG Scary Thing(tm) wasn’t particularly believable, but i haven’t yet seen one that is, and i don’t think i could point to a better one. not much plot, but a movie like this doesn’t need one.
Interesting and illuminating for BSG fans, but weighed down by Michelle Forbes wooden, shallow, unsympathetic performance as Admiral Caine. Unfortunately, almost 50% of the movie is about her. The other half is tremendous, though!
well-done, with great performances all around, frankly, not absorbing enough to justify the long run-time. Would have made a killer HBO mini-series.
