Now THAT was a weird and VERY gross movie!
I especially liked the part played by Mickey Rourke (I believe that was him, anyway). I wouldn't mind seeing a whole movie based just on that guy. Excellent acting... just loved that part.
It was quite funny to see Harry Potter get dismembered and eaten by a dog.
Kids everywhere would be devistated if they saw it.
Quentin tries for yet another shocker.
Man, Jessica Alba looked hot and barely 19.

I know people are gonna be grossed out, but it's darned-near art to me. |

That wasn't Harry Potter.
It was Frodo. |

Damn good movie though. I guess its finally in Korea. I downloaded it some time ago, but want to see it on the big screen.
Did you think that Frank Miller deserved the co-director credit? I can totally see it. A lot of those camera shots looked exactly like a comic book frame.
The only think I didn't like was the character Miho. maybe it was just those dorky-looking throwing stars she used... |

It was a kick-ass film. Excellent!! Saw it about 2 months but I must see it again. It rocked!!
Frodo getting a taste of his own medicine was done well. The comic book feel about it fitted the film perfectly. |

No, Mickey is the main guy, the boxer / tough guy who is punching the crap out of everybody and fed Frodo to the dogs. The yellow guy is the guy who killed the girl and he's looking for revenge. |

Saw it last Thursday and thought that it was great, though it was a little gross at times (all those crotch shots were making my friend and I twinge!). Very comic book-ish and stylish. Liked it a lot and would recommend it to people who are into something a little out of the ordinary.  |

Saw it yesterday, one of my Korean co-workers saw it to on the weekend, she walked out she couldnt handle it, to cruel she said.
I really liked the narration in it, usually I hate narration but it worked well in this movie, Jessica Alba is def someone to watch out for in the future. |

you should tell her never to watch either Old Boy or "Sympathy for Mr Vengeance" then!
I thought visually it was amazing, and I'd love to see it on the big screen, but probably would have enjoyed it more if I'd known that the three stories aren't really connected.
Hope to see a sequel, in fact I'd like it to be a franchise. |

I thought it was crap; horribly repetitive (basically the same story done three times), with an unhealthy obsession with mangling the groin.
And, worst of all, it didn't even look that great. Rodriguez is a terrible director. |
