was there any gloomy, opaque liquid involved in the movie?

 

[mugs]

Anyone remember the cartoon Pirates of Dark Water?

 

[Neurorelay]

It was a good movie in the sense of a classic thriller, no over the top effects or bloated storylines.

more like excruciating

Glad I didn't see it.

this movie was far from the worst movie of 2005. The movie was actually entertaining IMO.

if you think this was the worst movie you saw in 2005, it was probably the only movie you saw in 2005.

The title threw me off . The last time I saw dark water was after some bad shrimp .

Oh yeah I used to love that cartoon...

But in relation to this thread... I haven't even heard of Dark Water.

I agree. The movie was very good from a photographic/atmospheric standpoint and was everything it was shooting to be.

If you were going into it wanting to see Jennifer Connelly in some skimpy outfit...you probably were disappointed.

No way. WAY too slow. I couldn't finish the orignal Japanese one, but i figured if it was good enough for a Hollywood remake, it must be worth seeing. But i couldn't finish the Hollywood one either.

i'm sick of these movies

 

[Chunkee]

okay mcmurp, yeah, you are right, it was the only movie i saw...

clearly you being entertained by it says it all.

Not a great movie, not a horrible one. It required a brain and a little patience to get the full effect, so it's no surprise that many ATOT's are whining about it. But the worst movie of 2005? Not even in the top 20 worst. Try: Alone in the Dark, Aeon Flux (so bad not even Charlize Theron could make it watchable), Into the Blue (so bad not even Jessica Alba in a bikini for 2 hours could make it watchable), Elektra (so bad not even Jennifer Garner in tight leather could make it watchable), The Dukes of Hazzard (so bad not even Jessica Simpson shaking it in a pink bikini could make it watchable), etc etc etc.

I must agree with GagHalfrunt (great name BTW...) The Dukes was horrible, I actually left the theatre (it was part of a double feature, I wasn't expecting much) and, well, I didn't even really like Hitchhikers Guide, even though I paid to see it in the theatre and bought the DVD

Even Jennifer Connelly didn't make it worth watching?



D'oh....

 

[Lonyo]

A History of Violence was my worst film of the year.

 

[Kadarin]

Japanese horror genre = :thumbsdown:

required a brain and some patience eh? only tard like would post mostly hot chick flix in the same category...expecting those to be worth watching is idiocy in itself. perhaps you should just stick to something else.

Dark Water - storyline, with its attempts at a parallel horrible childhood story, failled on all levels, suspense, effects, dialogue, pace and ending... I do not even think anyone read the screenplay on this one...just gave the money due to the genre and Jenn Connelly.

That movie is a repressed memory for me. Conolleys' boobs were it's only saving grace.

 

[Jeraden]

I just watched it last week and I agree it was extremely disappointing. Moved extremely slow, wasn't really all that interesting, definitely not scary, and the ending was totally unsatisfying. Thumbs down.
