Ok that was good. But SO NOT A COMEDY! NOT EVEN A DARK COMEDY!!!!
Clearly way too few tourists, and not windy enough. How did they manage to keep the wind down in the main square???
The "Belgians" were on the whole, way too French. I mean, one of them was a French actress, y'know? You just can't hide it. And I know that side of the country is more French-ish, but still.
I didn't think it ever snowed THAT much in Belgium.
They got the cloudy weather right though!
They also got the boots-and-scarves fashion sort of thing down. :drool:
I feel like all the rooms were way too big. Mostly the rooms I remember being kinda cramped-ish.
I don't *think* there were instances where streets that aren't next to each other in real life were next to each other in the movie, but not being a resident of Brugge I have no idea.
No fries? Why all the chocolate bashing?
I kept being told about the Brugge-bashing and how terribly they speak of the city, but they didn't really say much other than "Damn, Brugge sucks." Which isn't much of a Brugge-bashing, is it.
Seriously, where are all the Belgian actors? I mean, there was really only one who had any main role! Hell, they had a Dutch actress with a bigger part. Insult? Yes.
Not crowded enough. Really not crowded enough.
And the "Flemish English" accent really just sounded to me like French English, and not real Flemish English.
SQUEE CARILLON BELLS IN A MOVIE!
It was a good gangster movie. I just wish I hadn't watched it expecting a dark comedy, because it was not funny in any way, shape, or form.
