Ugh... been watching this on Blu-ray. Will be really happy to sell it.

Not a bad movie... just gross and bloody. Sort of expected.

Just as bad as Trainspotting? Couldn't sit through that one.

Haven't seen this movie but sounds like I should avoid it perhaps.

Completely different tangent, can anyone help me with the name of a movie? A horror movie about a group of people that go caving & get trapped underground....came out last year I think. Meant to see it at the time but missed it so now want to dl it here but cannot remember the name.
Anyone know what I'm talking about??

I will warn you it's not very good. The Descent.

Downloading Sweeney Todd now to add to my collection of movies to watch during finals.

Sweeney Todd was a bore. I fell asleep in the theater. Five of us went and only of us liked it.
Burton has made some of my favorite movies so maybe I expect to much of him But basically, in my opinion, this was down there with his Planet of the Apes movie. Everything looked good in both, but in the end they were not very moving.

It's supposed to gross you out.

Broadway Musicals aren't easy to bring to the screen. Stephen Sondheim musicals are even less easy. That this one did as well as it did is surprising. Haven't seen it, but the play was great.

I liked it until I saw the play on youtube.com. I think that the movie could have been A LOT better. They cut so much of it out even with the composer doing the editing. The movie just missed so much. That said my obsession has become a huge dislike. Crying or Very sad

I think the worse than God Awful movie you're talking about is called "the cave" one of the worst movies of all time. Coming in close second to Deep Blue starring Samuel L, LL cool, and some genetically altered sharks.
