My wife is a Bafta winning and Oscar nominated vfx supervisor and reckoned the effects were by and large average but extensive, and she should know cos she did some of 'em.:)
So not your typical "punter" then

Not really no......... that's why I said it's ok for other people to like it but we didn't.
Battlefield Los Angeles is going to be visually stunning however, but I suspect a bit slim on plot or common sense.:)
Can't argue with that! There may have been a lot of vfx but they weren't all that noticeable to me and they were used to aid the storytelling rather than "lets just have some cool stuff because we can".
Just watched it and enjoyed it. Interesting but gripping.
jahwomble: it starts pretty slow but it sounds like you walked out before it got to the more pacey action bit (i.e. from the freight train driving through middle of the city street)
Here's an alternative trailer, worth a look:
Go back and watch Memento instead. Now there's a proper head ****.
Really? I thought memento was fantastic and a far better film. It's easy to understand and doesn't have any silly open endings.
If you want a proper 'WTF is real?' movie then Cronenberg's Existenz is the one - so many levels up & down in that one and you really start to doubt what's 'real' and what's not.
Fun me. I thought I would die in the cinema and was kind of hoping for it). Truly detested it.
Blimey. Why did you hate it so much?
great film, utterly engrossing.
loved it.
my mind snapped with about 30 minutes to go, but I was too involved to worry about it and it made for a fun discussion afterwards working out what the hell went on.
and I'd like to think that he's still dreaming...
