Planet of the Apes (1968)-8/10
Surprisingly quite good. Can't believe I waited this long to see it.
Worth watching as a tribute to Charleton Heston.

:) ...but there was some nice giant-sized monsters, some of the cgi worked in the mist (cause it made it less shiny, flimsy and less artifical-looking)... (but of course the film was a complete waste of time)

All That Jazz 10/10!
This is one of the greatest glitz and glam tour de forces of showmanship i've ever barred witness to. if you're interested in theatre in anyway its imperative that you see this, and if you're not interested in it you still have to see this thing. The editor of this film gets up, puts on a glittered top hat and does a goddamn tap dance, cause its a rare occasion i ever see editing energize a movie like they've done here. can't say enough good things about it.
funny it kinda reminds me of Network in ways, one of them being that they were done around the same time.

Shit, so I wasted 12 hours downloading that the other day? To think of all the other things I could have done with that bandwidth.
Lisztomania, 3.5/5, super setpieces like Nazi-Robot Wagner and the 30 Foot Penis make this one a winner.

I tried to stay away from this thread, but this movie really pissed me to no end. How less original can you be? I'm just glad that my opinion about Arcand has been proven right yet once again.

I suppose it's mean mainly because it's pointless and unecessary because the plot says nothing but 'whoa THAT'S LIKE SO DARK'. That fucking puppet on a bike thing is so 90's and it's just an insult to horror fans..........except it isn't because EVERYONE I've asked about it loved it. I bought it cheap just to give it a try. I felt like some light fun teen style horror for a change but found it wasn't fun, exciting, new, or even violent in the right ways. I watched it once, then 3 months later gave it another try. Half way through I took it out of my DVD player and held it up to the light. I then squeezed it until it shattered then i did this mad 'fuck-you-for-being-a-shit-film' dance on the case (which hurt my feet). I burnt bits of it with a lighter then threw it away. It even felt like it was an inslut to my bin. I've NEVER snapped one of my films. NEVER until that day.

Exactly. It's one of the most insulting films I've ever seen. It's bad and it makes you feel bad. It thinks it's smart because it assumes you're an idiot.

Yeah! I havn't seen the sequels but the first one was like that too. 'Are the phsychotic motives of the killer really so bad when we all live our lives in such a deluded foolish way. Is he not the one that truely sees the light. Perhaps it's us who are killing ourselves blah blah blah.
Such an insulting cliche. It's been done before but better. The whole thing reeks of crap. The whole film is so posey. Even if this wasn't a problem the dull faceless cast, gothic 'slipknot-MTV' lighting, and pants film structure make for an utterly unlikable film. BUT SO MANY PEOPLE LIKED IT AS IF OUR GENERATION SIMPLY HAS NO SHAME...........I guess it is just a film and I should calm down..........

I've seen all the sequels because I hate myself, and I like them better. Probably because they're more obvious in their stupidity, or more likely you just get used to it.
