I think that's a great trailer and I'm definitely going to see this because I love Richard Kelly's first film, Donnie Darko, but I've heard that this thing is a huge mess of a film.

Apparently, Kelly tried to be too smart with his plot and it turns out totally confusing and annoying to the viewer. This is just what I've read, of course. I'm going to check it out as soon as I can find a theater that's showing it.:dead:

I've heard it's either love it or hate it...I'll save judgement till I see it. Donnie Darko was awesome, on a side note.

That pretty well paraphrases my thoughts on the matter. It's interesting, but I think it might not live up to that potential in its execution.

donnie darko was great, so i'm interested.

the trailer looks pretty good, but i got a feeling this film may be a bit up-it's-own-ass for my tastes.

Total Film was saying it's 'Richard Kelly's Heaven's Gate' ... so ambitious, but a bit much and a bit pretentious, but some will love it and some will hate it and some will have no idea what's going on.

I didn't really follow it during production, barely in fact, so I've not had my fill of it like you sometimes get if you follow something too much before you see it. So I'll see...

even walking tall? i bet Buford Pusser was rollin' in his grave over that one.

don't take offense, ace. not to say the rock's not an awesome entertainer, but he's not flawless.

back to topic, though, i'll probably see this one, but it'll probably be after i can rent it and watch it from the comfy conditions of my own pad.

Any trailer with a Pixies song has got my vote.
