I thought Fincher's take on ...Dragon Tattoo was "meh" (my mother who saw it with me really hated it, much more than I did) but I DESPISE that ugly grey "pall of smoke" look in the film. I found it extremely distracting and made it hard to watch and impossible to get into the story. I was left wondering if it would have been more involving had there been some bloody light used during the shooting occasionally. Vastly preferred the Swedish version for how it looked and for the superior acting (Craig and Mara just didn't win me over; there was nothing actually wrong with their efforts, but Nyquist and Rapace were so superb that the actors in American version were doomed from the off). I did think Christopher Plummer was excellent in the remake, however.
Part of me wants to see The Grey because of the wolves, but I am put off by Liam Neeson being in it. Is he bearable? Remember that I thought he was unwatchably bad in Taken, so my Neeson tolerance is extremely low. |
Legion is bad but enjoyably so. Priest is just bollocks.
I like Neeson and thought Taken was great fun so I'm definitely the wrong person to ask.
