Review

What a fucked up movie! Definitely one of the worst murder mystery "who done it" ever. Totally ruined my sunday cause I watched the Oxford murders and The Happening.

There are 6 reasons why I hated this movie. Here they are;

1.Bad acting.

The women in this movie acted as though they had something up their arses all the time.John Hurt whom I thought was a good actor did a fuckall job, everytime he is onscreen and starts blabbering around,I just wished the Chestbuster(from the movie Alien) would pop out of his chest and kill him so he won't have to continue.

2.Elijah Wood.

I think he threw his acting skills along with the ring when he went to Mordor in Lord of the Rings. Fucker keeps thinking he is Frodo freaking Baggins. In this movie, he is supposed to be an American in Oxford university(England), but he keeps changing his accent...sometimes in an American accent and sometimes in a shitty British accent.(no American will says "fucking hell"). This pundei acts only well when he doesn't have to fucking talk (Sin City).

3.The script.

Just because the movie is done in Oxford University, doesn't mean you have to include big boombastic words in your script to fool your viewers. Some of us viewers may never have been to a university but that doesn't mean we are idiots either.Absolute Rubbish! And thats was what I thought about the script.

4.Editing.

I'm pretty sure the editing team are deaf and blind.

5.The Plot.

Definitely the shittiest plot ever.

As the movie drags on, the more pissed off you will get.

6. Love scene.

There is so much bad acting in this particular scene even porn actors have done better jobs in acting.

British chick(Leonor Watling) with big tits trying to fuck the hobbit (Elijah Wood), bumbling all over the bed and...there is a plate of spaghetti involved. You would go "what the fuck" as I did when you see that.

Dont even bother watching this movie and avoid it at all cost.

Editors note: This movie is based on a award-winning novel by the Argentine author Guillermo Martínez, first published in 2003. Like a said before, usually the books are much better.
