Legion, in a nutshell

Jun 04, 2010 23:53

Yeah, I know i'm late to the party, but I wouldn't have been seeing it at all had I not gotten in free, thanks to Uni Cinema projectionist kestrellan and sue me, I just like bitching about movies. I knew it had gotten diabolical reviews, and there was plenty of silly stuff in the trailer alone - the Ice-Cream man with the ZOMGFACE and the wall-crawling ( Read more... )

this is satire, unwarranted opinions, i fail, movies

I'm not gonna lie. The one and only reason I went to see Legion was because I think Paul Bettany is ridiculously hot. From that standpoint it was worth it. Otherwise it was a very silly movie.

This. Except, I'd exchange the word 'silly' with 'tragically fucking awful'.

And just think Ali, as the projectionist you were our enabler! :D

I only projected this one because no one else would. Perhaps I should have cancelled it.

One of the main things that pissed me off, apart from the terrible dialogue and the characters I didn't care about and the mountain of cliches, was the sheer fucking misogyny. Yes, I went there. It was fucking terrible! First of all, I don't care if girls want to wear skimpy clothes, good for them, but it was the fact the scriptwriters felt they had to make an excuse for her looking ~slutty~, that being, she's The Rebellious Daughter of this film. Whatever ( ... )
