Topic: Tarantinos new movie .. Posted: March 22 2006 at 09:18 |
HOSTEL.
Hm .....
apparently, it's really bad ...
:x
Meh, load of rubbish by the sound of it. Probably his first hiccup, since all the others were epics.
I didn't mind the blood in RD/Kill Bill, because it was farfetched. But maybe Hostel is all serious and dramatic rather than random ...
Anyone seen it?

It's not. It's written by him though I think.

Based on IMDb it's not even written by him, he's just one of the
executive producers and the film is presented by him (whatever that
means). The film seems to be rated quite low, so let's just pretend that
Tarantino has nothing to do with it.

Because its stupid and brutal crap.

It isn't his. His name was put on it and embellished his role in it quite a bit. He basically gave it good press and supported it. Tarantino's next movie is Grindhouse I think.

My flat mate has seen it and tells me its rubbish. Apparantly not much happens for most of the film and the ending is a bit far fetched and pointless. But I havnt seen it, doesnt sound like I'd want to either.

Haven't seen it. I love Tarantino but I fear he may be slipping judging by these reviews.

Here I'm shadowed by a dragon fig tree's fan
ringed by ants and musing over man.

Yeah, he is slipping.
I guess he thought with loads of good reviews about all his other films, he could pull this one off:
wrong!

The only thing Tarantino had to do with the movie is he co-produced it.
It was written and directed by Eli Roth.

Tarantino's films are too brutal for me except for Jacky Brown - that had a good story and was low on violence.
