I really, really enjoyed it. It's not a movie for everyone. It's a bleak, violent and borderline nihilistic indictment of American ideals, but it is exceptionally well made and acted. It has also received generally good reviews (78% on RT), so calling it a "stinker" is off-base. It's not a commercial success, but I wouldn't expect a grungy, R-rated gangster film to be huge at the box office regardless.

EDIT: Actually, the budget of the film is fifteen million dollars, and it already made seven million at the box office. Another week in theaters and it will certainly recoup all of the money it cost to make it.

Watched these tonight:

Lawless - 9/10 (Great movie. Guy Pearce should get a nomination for his performance. Man... what a nasty, slimy and repulsing character.)

Seeking a Friend for the End of the World - 8/10 (Sweet, sincere, heartfelt and original. Great little flick.)

[Gee]

Lawless is the perfect example of a movie extremely well made -acting, directing, etc- but that fails to make me feel empathy for its characters. Mostly because they're all either idiots either scumbags. 7/10

The other movie you mentionned is a nice little harmless movie. Has its moments. Carell pisses me off by using the same freakin expression in every single shot of every single one of his movies. 6,5/10

I'm looking forward to see Killing Them Softly. It'll be released tomorrow in France.

[bright lights, big city]

Lawless is on my list to watch soon. Didn't Nick Cave write it or something?

[Gee]

Didn't Nick Cave write it or something?

Yes.

Disagreed.

I actually cared for the brothers.

Safety Not Guaranteed - 7/10

Good little flick. Surprising ending.

[deftoolsys07]

Anyone going to go see Pulp Fiction in theaters again tomorrow?

[theis]

Looper - 9/10

Yup, definitely one of the best I've seen this year.

[Gee]

Now we agree 

[Corleone]

Shutter Island 9/10

kind of knew what was happening, but it was a mind fuck still

[black coffee]

End of Watch

don't think I've ever seen a movie with this many fucks and shits. I mean, do people in LA really curse this much, even cops? Aside, a good movie. Gyllenhaal and Peña are awesome together.

[blixa]

melancholia. definitely depressed the shit out of me.
