Mach said:

yeah, i did that too i PROMISE its not what you think it is


the way the movie was made is interesting, the movie itsself makes me wanna blow my brains out (after you see it, you will know why)

btw mach, how old are the kids ?

nakedpianoplayer said:

i think i am aware of what it will be like ...( i research stuff before i spend my time and $ on it ) and the kids seemed interested in seeing it also ...

they are 15 and 13

going on 30 ...

Jessica ... the 13 - 30 yr old ~laughs~ is very interested in movies and how they are made and the effects they have on people ... she studies movies all the time ...

Mach said:

ok, she will enjoy seeing the 'effects' this one has on folks it took me 20 minutes to get my 10 year old to get off the floor and stop crying.... im kinda sad i let him watch it in the first place. maybe yours will handle it better than mine as for me, yeah, it was alright, nothing i would watch again

nakedpianoplayer said:

awww poor kido ..

they always have the freedom to leave the TV room if bothered ...

thanks for your heads up opinion though ...

Mach said:

cool let me know how you guys liked it.

I thought it was decent. The two leads weren't great actors, but once they were in the water it was really terrific. I know a LOT of people that intensely dislike the movie, but good movies often polarize viewers.

I LOVED this film. And hated it. I literally felt sick to my stomache for 2 hours after seeing it. Not because it was gross, but just because I 'bought' the whole film and was very stressed out by it.

But yeah, I also know friends who tought it was pure crap. Go figure...

Great Movie. (I started a thread when it came out). Freaked me out though...as it was supposed to. I know a lot of people who won't see it. I was terrified though. The storm part was the freakiest part. I cried out of sheer terror. And the end... But you know I like movies like that. I am so sick of the same ol same ol where I feel nothing. It's called being original and NOT cheating.

your were sick because

that shit really happens

and there aint no way anyones gonna find you

its over johnny




thats why you felt sick

cause it reaked of the real

shausler said:

and thats why it was so hard to explain the after feelings to my son.. theres no "monster" or fake about it, its nature... and when man wanders into the wrong place... well, this is what happens...

your son saw this


?


how old?

shausler said:

see, thats what i was saying, i thought it would be like jaws... man made terror imagine my horror at how it all happened !

my son just turned 10 a few days ago.... my daughter is almost 7, she was totally uneffected by it though go figure.

nakedpianoplayer said:

im sure its a good life lesson for him


that was based on several true tales


i will never go skin diving again

that for certain



the ocean is soo big but remember


the red spot on jupitor

could swallow our whole planet so,

what really is big


we have no clue

I saw it in the theatre when it was first released, and at the film's conclusion a couple people said "That's it?" I don't know what else they were expecting.

shausler said:

i feel ya it was just so 'real'

they did an amazing job at filming the movie - i give credit where credit is due.... but damn, wheres the love ??? the ending was, shocking to say the least, and left way to much to the imagination

also, i dont think i will get my son in the ocean after that

the only thing that brought him outta the funk he was in was to watch the extras.....you know, the making of ? then he could see that it was all actors, and noone was really hurt in the end...

what i dont understand is why this one effected him this way, other scary movies didnt do that, maybe its because it was so real looking

interesting little movie ...

not great but not bad either

kids wernt bothered by it at all

didnt figure they would be

Mach said:

good deal im glad you didnt have any of the 'meltdowns' that we did here

crazy ending huh ?

i did kinda like the movie itself... i just wish the ending was happier

nakedpianoplayer said:

well ... pretty realistic ...( the ending )


i can dig that

i was amazed that just 2 people made the movie with only 50 pieces of equipment ... and only on weekedns

Mach said:

for sure, that part was the best part of the movie, and the fact that it took what ? like 2 years of filming ??? thats just nuts....

but, it is great to see someone make a movie out of a belief that they can and not just some good looking hollywood actors

oh so very true

Decent movie. Overhyped, but not as much as blair witch. Good, but dont set your expectations too high.

I saw this last night with my daughter...when it ended, we both just stared at the screen, almost in shock. It sticks with you for a long while...

Byron said:

I watch it two days ago I'm still in shock.

Byron said:

were you at my house in the astral ?

we watched it last night too

strange litle movie

Mach said:

I think I would remember if I was..lol
