Yeah each to their own and all that
If a better director and better cast had done it then maybe it would be good.
I would have liked Alex Aja to do it tbh. We know he can create atmosphere and the dream sequences would have been perfect playground for Aja.

Not really a film, but last night I watched Robot Chicken's Star Wars (The 1st one) - hillarious stuff! Well worth checking out for fan of Adult Animation or Star Wars

Both great releases of stunning films -- I only have a review disc of Mulholland Drive and have the complete package on order but Zavvi keep sending me e-mails to say they don't have it in stock even though the website says it would be dispatched in three days. Extremely frustrating is an understatement!

I recorded it so will go into it with rather low expectations as my brother has it down as the worst film of 2010!

I think there has been supplier problems with both these discs as everyone seemed to be out of stock a couple of weeks ago. I was chatting to someone about them on another forum, and realised that they had come back in stock at Amazon - so quickly ordered copies.

Hope your copies are dispatched soon, Nos.

I have Delicatessen already and am only waiting for Mulholland Drive to make my StudioCanal Collection complete.

Won't spoil it for anyone but I found the ending/premise laughable .. "as if" I scoffed to myself!

I already know the reveal at the end because my brother told me as he assumed that I would never watch the film! I think his big beef with the movie was that it seemed like a two-hour commercial for the Bible!
