The development of Umberto's relationship with dog is one of the most exquisite developments of a human-canine relationship ever. Heart wrenching but not in the crying like crazy way, which is my favorite type of drama.

One of the few movies i've seen where I truly enjoyed and sympathized with having a main character be a woman. I thought the supporting characters where a bit too sterotypical to make it a truly good movie though.

The ending was really good, provided a nice view of how poor Albania is. Some bits i felt were drawn out a bit too much.

I could see how some people think this is a really good movie, there were definately some redeaming scenes (like the rivers of milk and the giant olive), but ultimately i felt that the message was lost in an abundance of social commentary and critism of America.

The Italian version was miles better than the American version. Pretty much tuined my faith in the human race. I felt that Carolo's friends running away at the end made the movie lose potency and made it just turn into a infedility movie instead of a movie with some form of redemtion.

The high rating is in relation to other chick flick movies, because it terms of chick flicks it by far surpassed any chick flick I have ever seen. the woman character was extremely charasmic in every way.

I liked the movie when I saw it, but having been a week since I saw it, I can barely remember anything about it. Therefore i am putitng it in my file of good but unremarkable movies.

I'm so pissed I wasted bandwidth downloading that.

God that movie sucked.

What was the point of the Father's Drinking and it first being completely superfluous and just never really developing as a plot element.

Horror movies have been so bad the last decade. I swear 9\10 is just a disaster, the upside is that it's hard not to enjoy a horror movie at the cinema even a terrible one.

The way some of the transformers talked..

Maybe if the cars had bigger rims and were bumpin'.

Oh Shit is that racist?

C'mon Matious, it's not racist, it was stupid and unfunny sure, but not racist, at least not on purpose.

Best part on the movie was that Whore-bot decipticrotch.

Spoiler Alert!!!!!!

I watched "A Clockwork Orange" yesterday. That movie plumb wore me out. Twas very weird. My mom and I disagreed, though, about the main character. She said that he was faking being cured the whole time until the very end when he made the deal with the doctor, but I thought that after he jumped out of the window was when he went back to being his normal self. I say this because when he jumped out the window he got over the fear of being "snuffed out" which was the whole point of the treatment was to correlate that feeling with violence, and I think when he got over that fear, thats when he went back to his normal self.

Hmmm. Does that make any sense at all? What do you guys think?

He was not faking. He was made to believe he was cured and had no choice but to behave.

No, they successfully brainwashed him but the way the story plays it. They make it seem like when you have an injury like that it jars whatever programming you get from being brainwashed which isn't true but I didn't over think it or complain about it while watching the movie.

Watching this for the third time has made me realise that this really is a smoke and mirrors film and not very good at that. Much prefer the directors earlier effort I Stand Alone.
