Dear Wendy (2005)

The most under appreciated player in the league!

[9/10 · 4 June 2005]

This flick, with its subtle views on America's obsession with weapons, is likely not going to be a crowd pleaser. One of the main reasons for this is the films use of highly symbolic mise-en-scene takes several viewings to fully appreciate. Another reason for the let down is that some might be inclined to want more action for a movie that centralizes on guns.

However, this movie is brilliant. The shot composition, the editing, the acting-this movie is very well pieced together. Also, as for the meaning of the movie, it goes in a direction that is a really provocative and fresh. I would highly recommend that you give this movie a chance, and keep an open mind. I have never been a fan of the director of this film or the writer, but I was deeply pleased by this film.

What was this movie about? It was about wasting $9 dollars! Really! I go to a movie, I say to myself, "This movie is going to not be worth the money I paid for it." Sometimes I am write, and sometimes I am wrong. Let me just say this movie was worth $9--that is if you paid me $9 to slap Oliver Stone for making it!

I got up in the middle of this movie, left for twelve minutes, and guess what, the movie was exactly the same as when I left.

I don't even write comments, this thing was just so bad, I had to write one.

Olly, you owe me $9

All call us even if you promise never to make a movie with no clear plot, horrible acting--wait, no I wont...that movie sucked way to hard. Retire!
