Ofcoursemyhorse 1043 Posted February 6, 2019 Yea this movie would be great because theres no way they wouldn't all walk away from a viewing of this movie absolutely furious. Rashomon style storytelling can be very fun when done well. The Halloween episode of It's Always Sunny is a standout for me. This movie however is not effective. It just feels like the movie is actively lying to you throughout, and when the final twist hits they've already gone in so many different directions and it just feels like a giant fuck you to everyone watching. 2 Share this post Link to post
Trip Maverick 4 Posted February 7, 2019 Thanks For saying Rashomon. I was trying to think of what this style of story telling was like. I need to give Basic another go. I remember liking it when I first saw it. Share this post Link to post
Roonami 11 Posted February 8, 2019 This was in theaters when I was in high school, and my buddies and I went to see it twice. Maybe even a third time? It was a cheap thrill but I also knew not to really look at it with a critical eye. I remember thinking Travolta was kinda holding back but Sammy L. was very Sammy L. so it was still fun.
