So what did you think of the original?

And why didn't you post it in the asian forum!? :mad:

Demons

It's silly, gory, fun, and oh so 80s. Put a smile on my face.

The Grudge 2

Blech! I thought this sucked about as much as I thought the first one sucked. The plot was dumb, the acting was decent, the gore was nonexistent & it kept introducing new characters only to kill them off a few minutes later. I just don't find anything scary about quick passing glimpses of little blue kids or a boiling bathtub full of brown water. The only redeeming quality this movie had at all was that the ending was slightly better than I expected.

Flushed Away

This was alright, but not in the same league as Finding Nemo or Toy Story. There were a few 'in' jokes and of course, a moral to the story. The animation was good, but it's becoming so commonplace that it no longer impresses me that much. The voice acting was fine & the slugs were funny. I was moderately entertained by it.

I loved the first scene and I wanted to like the rest of the movie but I fell asleep shortly after SMG's suicide jump. pretty boring movie...

Yeah, the first scene was alright, but it spiraled downhill from there. This movie actually put me to sleep twice before I got through the whole thing.

Not quite as fucked as I'd expected it to be...but, yknow nothing really resembling a half decent plot. SOME alright stunt coreography, but even that wasn't great..The acting...I don't even know if you can call it that...it was "ok", and kids might like it, but yknow, can't say I'll ever watch it again.
Funny how much harder Uwe Boll seems to try, and even with a bigger budget, can't make something half as good as this...that's saying a lot.
