Funny Games (2007)
1/10
Boring, disgusting, repulsive.

It's pretty bad that you can't vote a zero in the IMDb scale. I would have chosen that.

For commentaries on violence, there are other movies. I mean, with all its apparent trivialization of violence, "Pulp Fiction" and "Reservoir Dogs" actually did a better critique of violence than this movie does.

I can stand some suspension of disbelief. I perfectly understand the breaking of the fourth wall. But this movie carried both way too far. The suspension of disbelief was blown off early, and after that it all was unrealistic, boring, slow and uninteresting. The rewind scene at the end just blew it up high.

Some say the movie was meant to make you think. Please, movie directors, do not take the audience for retards. I can think about violence in movies without two hours of boring unbelievable stuff.

Save your time and money. Avoid this. As I said before, you'll think deeper about violence with "Pulp Fiction", "Snatch" or "Reservoir Dogs".
