I went in blind, invited by friends to watch from a VIP booth with free food and drinks. The opening scene in the office had me ready for a great comedy, and then instantly it turned into bizarre, unbelievable crap. I went from "hopeful" to "what-the-fuck-am-I-doing-here?" in no time flat. Not wanting to be rude, I stayed, but otherwise I would have walked out. It was pure torture. |

James McAvoy is my #1. This movie is stupid beautiful. I liked it much better than The Matrix, which it shares certain qualities with but is far less
pretentious.
Technically, its possible to curve bullets in the same way one can curve baseballs, if you were so fast and strong (beyond the abilities of most humans) and you had specially made bullets and revolver.

Didn't like it that much. Surprised to see that many approvals for it here. The supposed theme of the show was not just trite and nihilistic. It was just plain stupid. In terms of storytelling, it failed horribly. Action bits were okay but not exactly uncommon after The Matrix. Train crash scene was pretty good. Funny how no one referred to the hundreds of innocent people who had to have died in that one. |

I thought this movie was visually stunning and james macavoy was sex on a stick.
One thing I didn't understand tho. What was the point of going through the trouble of attaching all those tiny bombs to the thousands of rats and setting them free, if the dude was just gonna jump throuhg the window and start shooting people down by the dozens (awesome scene btw) |

I'm assuming the rats were just a diversion to catch everyone there off guard, so he could go in and fuck all those guys up.
ETA: Was it also implied that the Russion guy that was in the Fraternity was working with his dad because of the whole rat thing, because his dad has those watch-bombs at his house? |

I loved the office scenes. Especially the beginning scene with the boss's birthday party and the main characters commentary! The best part was when he told
her off and then hit the guy who was sleeping with his wife with his keyboard! That was badass.
I read up on the comic series and the film was loosely based off the books, I'm sure that had the fanboys all pissed off. |
