Kermodes idea of a wild weekend in high school was renting a black and white Venezuelan film from blockbuster and watching it alone

Kermode definitely got bullied by a “Geezer” when he was growing up

Usually pretty on point but this has aged terribly in my opinion esp that everythingafter was a triple or home run. Though death proof for me has always been up there. He say 'everyone in this film talks like q.t. 'well yeah thats what great and putting tarantino plus 70s type exploitation together is like to me idk clive barker mixed with nightmare on elm Street or two things you love meeting

My father bought a copy of Little Man for me on DVD while I was eight years old and sick with the flu and at the time I loved it. I feel such retroactive SHAME now

Personally I thought the bouncer/Nightclub and the Elevator scene were fantastic.

This and the POTC 3 review are the all time greats

I thought this film was totally brilliant ❤

Wish the other guy would stop interrupting!

Kermode is out of his depth reviewing this movie.

Thanks for the 17 camera information. The rest is your angry opinion about what you hate: football and conceptual art... well, football is an art, this documentary is a film. It is a conceptual and artistic piece... the problem is you might have seen too much hollywood, cinema is beyond your considerations, thankfully. Stick to your podcast, but it would be much more interesting to talk about something you like and know.

This movie is on TV tonight and I am going to watch it for the 1st time

I think Jimmy the Snout and Mumbles were in the Blue Carbuncle, so their absence makes sense.

The movie is indeed utter trash, but the series is excellent for the most part.

That Ron Waits impression was pretty spot-on towards the end there!

That’s the first time I’ve ever heard someone call someone “Stalinist” for not acknowledging Four Rooms. I must say that wasn’t on my Mark Kermode bingo card.

I'm glad Mark reminded us of just how terrible the NME was.

thank God for Mark Kermode. He doesn't say films are good just because they're touted as Arty films. The was rubbish. And Maria Schneider said the things that were done to her were not agreed by her in advanced and were abusive and caused her serious long term trauma. Even without knowing that, the film was pompous and boring. Brando was pompous and boring and mumbled. I always liked John Fowles comment Adolescent work done by a retarded adolescent.

That film is the most mind-numbingly tedious I have ever watched. I may even have nodded off. Love of truth compels me to say that the last half-hour was ever so slightly less wearisome than what preceded it. And therefore, the film was thoroughly worthy of the book.

Stop screaming you absolute sausage

It’s an incredible movie, glorious to look at and listen to. Should have received more praise than it did. The train hold up scene is just wonderful

Hated this movie when I saw it at the cinema and was going to revisit it after watching a better Tarantino movie recently. Listening to this review again has saved me the bother of doing that so thank you 😊

I'm with Kermode on this one. If you want to see a movie that depicts depression, isolation better, watch Nicholas Cage in Leaving Las Vegas.

Inglorious Bar Stewards 2?! Was there a 2?

“Non, non! C’est masterpiece! C’est magnifique! How dare you, English pig dog”

Gotta love the way Kermode condescends one of the greatest directors of all time.

I love how he just flagrantly spoils the entire thing lol

To play devils advocate i think its unfair to count Four Rooms and From Dusk til Dawn as Tarantino films

I like looking back at Mark’s list of hated flicks … Moonfall, Geostorm, Angels & Demons, this one. He’s not wrong.

So you didn't like it Mark?😄

How about Little Wicker Man? A little person from Harlem disguises himself as a Scottish baby in order to investigate the disappearance of a script writer in the outer Hebrides, and ends up discovering real family values and the true meaning of sacrifice.

I mostly disagree with kermode here, but I keep coming back to this review because its just so funny. I love a good rant and this one is really great.

I find it kind of funny that Mark mentions that Michael Winner supported Christian Bale's outburst, considering that Winner has been accused by multiple people of being an abusive asshole on set.

I thought it was interesting as a comedy war movie and bizarre story

0:45

Take a shot every time Mark breathes loudly

I loved this movie

As soon as I heard him mention the Guardian giving it 5 stars, my instant response was "Well of course they did."

Can someone here point me in the direction of some great films mr Kermode has made?

I agree that the dialogue can be unrealistic but I think overall it’s a good movie. At the end of the day it’s about cars ramming into each other and getting cathartic violent revenge, so it’s hard to not enjoy it.

I love Rocknrolla. 😂 Kermode has let his bias show here. He doesn't like geezer movies. Fair enough but to a lot of people they're good escapism.

T2 isn't better than T1. It just isn't.

Ok sure the original is untouchable but... I thought this had real menace and threat of violence with no escape. Yes young people in a van travelling though Texas with chainsaw in the title we know or we think we know what will play out. For me the biggest character is not leather face its Sheriff Hoyt played by R.Lee Emery. It has a claustrophobic atmosphere and tension. For me its a great film, haters gonna hate 8/10

The long good fridave

Should it be compared to Goodfellas? They are both masterpieces about a bunch of dumb criminals, rife with group hero worship, over inflated thinking of themselves, and at least on the part of the leader, bitter suspicion and cruelty.

Bug probably had such a weak roll out because it received a rare "F" audience score.

Mark's statement of never seeing the Cannes cut of the movie EVER AGAIN is incredibly ironic seeing how Arrow Video released it just a couple years ago

Legendary

I also feel the same way about Superbad, it was from that era of vulgar teen comedy films about sex. Not really funny to me personally.

Odd question- does anyone know where Kermode is pulling that Kim Newman quote from?

I remember listening to this review on their podcast a week after it aired and I could not stop laughing. The funniest review I think he's ever done, and even surpasses Danny Dyer and Pirates. 14 years late, but thank you for posting this!
