Americans are dumbed down, yes I said it. Any American critic that didn't find something good about this movie should go to their garage, shut the door, and turn their car on until they die... because they have simply become inured to good movies that lack 'splosions. RedBox reviewers are a bunch of drooling morons that wouldn't know good storytelling if it came up and kicked them in their shriveled dongs... omg, what a bunch of idiot Americans. |

80+ from critics is good, not sure what you're on about. But wholly agree with Redbox reviewers. |

I'm on a kick about a fantastic piece of film, maybe went overboard a bit, its nothing personal.. but seriously, anyone that wasn't entertained by this movie isn't imaginative enough for me to care what they think.

The Signal was ok, ending kinda blew it for me. Irreversible is pretty crazy, but it's not a Scifi movie. One of my fave mind ****s is Memento, but I think everyone has seen that. |

You have seriously oversold this movie. Not bad by any means. ScarJo is very good (better than I thought capable, honestly), and it's a gorgeous film, but it's painfully "arty". It's a thinker, and there's no doubt why it never got a wide theatrical release - it's just not very accessible for most audiences. |

The first 1/3 of the film is just her finding "victims." We never get her motivations, no questions are answered after about the 1/3 mark, and there might not be 200 words of dialogue in the whole movie. This might be like reading "The Man In The High Tower." Yes, it's a good work of science fiction but hard to enjoy if you aren't a fan of the specific genre or that type of writing/film making. |
