Dullest Film Ever

Kinska said:
I've learnt my lesson - I need to react to the media hype i.e. 'wonderful film', 'amazing cinematography' in the same way that people who haven't seen me in a while and are now faced with my extra 2 stone in bodyweight tell me I 'look amazing... really well.'

Try reading a few critics' opinions on films you've already seen, till you find one who seems to match your views, and then read what they think of a film you're about to see. Or something like that. For example, if Peter Bradshaw of the Guardian likes a film, I'll probably find it interminable, over-worthy tosh.

Paul Ross is a bad choice: he seems to like everything.
 
The Matrix sequels, Jeepers Creepers, the Star Wars prequels, and yes, definately Love Actually. All unceasing celluloid shite during which I prayed for death.
 
Gangs of New York deserves a special mention.

Same goes for Phantom Menace and most Vin Diesel films.
 
I found Dogville pretty dull, and switched off after 20 minutes. In fact, I think I would have preferred Love Actually... and that's really saying something.
 
a film called "in the bedroom" which came out a few years ago, to great reviews, had sissy spececk in it...dull dull dull.....
 
Another vote for Phantom Menace.

Was in New York before it came out over here, 1st day there straignt to a cinema to see it. One and only time I've ever fallen asleep in a cinema! Put it down to jet lag.

Tried watching it twice when it came out on DVD here and both times zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
 
Gigli - a waste of 1.5 hr of my life although it felt more like 10 years.

An excellent remedy for those who suffer from insomnia though ;)

Solaris has to be the winner though.
The girlfriend just got the 4-hour original Russian version on DVD. That's a long time for me to be reading the subtitles :(
Although from what I've seen the vast majority of the film involves no speaking at all.

After that I've got "Stalker", another 2-DVD marathon. Another one of those Russian films where no one talks for 30 minutes :)
Great imagery though, reminds me a bit of Prodigy's Breath video
 
'Blow up'

A supposedly classic/cult film where nothing happens. At all. At one point you can make out a nipple, but that was it.

Utter shite.

..But Jane Birkin is in it..! ;)

(but,yeah,the film is utter pompous misogynistic shite,& overrated too!)
 
Eyes Wide Shut, me and my flatmate must have tried to watch it at least 3 times, never got more than 15 minutes in before we'd be chatting about something completely different.
