Rango update feed
"Re-watch - March 22nd I finally added Rango to my collection, and on this evening my daughter and I watched the extended cut which has a far more rewarding ending. I love pretty much everything about this film, as I've expressed before on this site, and it's one I know I'll keep returning to in the years ahead."
"Director: Gore Verbinski WINNER"
"I'm probably gonna get a lot of shit for this pick, but this is another one that just annoyed the hell out of me. It's commendable for trying to make a western for kids, but the whole thing is just so needlessly dark and cruel that it really makes you feel uncomfortable while watching it. Not to mention, the main character is the most unfunny kind of screw-up, and a good chunk of the jokes are just unbearable. It's just an all-around unpleasant film. Gore Verbinski should not be allowed to make "
"I guess I commend this movie for trying to make a western for kids, but it's just not a fun film to watch. It's a very dark movie, which I don't usually complain about, but here it just seems downright mean-spirited; there's not really anything good to offset it. No good humour, no good virtues – nothing. That and the main character is the most annoying kind of screw-up; you just end up wanting to smack him. When you're not reeling in terror from those unblinking eyes, that is! :) Between this"
