This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.

Am I Missing Something?

Absolutely brilliant

Doomtomylo

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

When I bought this film, I wasn't expecting much. And, at first, I was right. The movie seemed unbelievably sappy and light, but I decided to give it a chance anyway. It just got darker and darker as the film went along! Although not quite as funny as I would've liked, it was well written(except for a climax similar to the film "Shallow Grave", where the girl finds out what is in the bag), because there are more plot twists than an M Night Shy uh... however you spell it film, and a lot of things about our so called "heroes" that we didn't know before. There's also plenty of disturbing deaths for gore fans, including a woman being axed in the head and hit by a car, a man falling and breaking his skull open on a toilet, a diabetic being forced to eat a lollipop until he dies, and so many more. The only reasons I gave this movie a 9 instead of a 10 were because it could've been funnier, Simon Pegg's fake American accent just sounded, well, fake, and that the film seems to want to borrow humor from "Shaun of the Dead", but almost fails because Pegg is the only cast member from that film. That said, it had a few moments where I genuinely laughed, and a few where I nearly gasped with revulsion. So, a pretty fun movie with a twist I overlooked: David Schwimmer in something that doesn't suck? Wow! What a twist!

Well as my summary tells, movie is really really good actually great in its genre. Its about an exteacher Charlie who gets into a criminal business with Gus an ex con and a killing ''widow'' Josie trying to squizee 200k from reverend pervert dealing with child porn or something. Of course all goes wrong starting with a murder.The movie will provide quite an amount of WTF(what the f**k) moments should make you smile (if not laugh) sometimes.But what really is disturbing is the way they showed us the ending. Have to say that ending, while in rough point was OK, was delivered bad on screen. Didn't get to know what happened to Charlies wife, and we are left thinking ''hey maybe Charlie could have survived''(highly doubtfull) but anyway this movie was a great ''waste'' of time and would deserve clear 8 if it wouldn't be for a crap ending

I saw this movie yesterday, and I must say I was impressed. Where do i start? The music, the cinematography, the plot or the acting? Well the music was delightful. A little different from what you usually hear running in the background. The cinematography is simply superb, whether it is the choice of colors or background or the usage of split screens or just the swift movement of camera. The actors did a good job. All actors played their characters convincingly, especially Simon Pegg. The plot. Oh My GOD!. After a long time have I come across a plot like this, with so many twists and turns that it just keeps getting wackier every minute. You get so involved in the plot, that you feel sad when.....I'll leave the rest for you to watch :)

IMDb rightfully says I must have at least 10 lines,This maybe could have been a better movie. if ALL all the following things occurred..Better writing,better acting, better production values & most important better Editing.The director was Jean-Baptiste Andrea. He also co-wrote the convoluted,confusing not even one bit mildly amusing script.Compounding this unfunny so-called comedy of errors,is the running time, It runs 80 minutes before 5 minutes of credits, This 80 minutes seem like twice the length.The film features David Schwimmer, David usually performs well, not in this mess though. Simon Pegg who usually shines in a role is dreadfully miscast. Alice Eve is the top billed actress here. Jon Polito a fine character actor is not good at all.The rest of cast is of same quality.The title is most appropriate:BIG NOTHINGThis was made in Jan 2006, & just had its first US release on DVD July 2009. It did have a disastrous theatre run in the UK. one weekend in 2007 in 106 houses.This is not even worth a showing on TV .Ratinggs: 1/2* out of 4 --15 points out of 100---IMDB- 1 out or 10
