Has anyone seen "Envy", "Duplex", or "Zatoichi"?

"Envy" (Ben Stiller) got 6% on rottentomatos... ouch! "Duplex" (Ben Stiller) got 33%. I picked Envy over Duplex before I saw the RT rating, is it even worth watching? I also picked out "Zatoichi" (no Ben Stiller), the movie about the blind samurai. Hopefully that's good, it got an 86% on RT and I like foreign films. 🙂
 
I'm suprised he's doing such crappy moives. I guess he's just jumping at any movie that fits his type cast.
 
lol, I was like...Zatoichi kind of doesn't mix with that crowd. It's a good movie, very funny...a little slower than what most American viewers are used to, but I really liked it.
 
Zatoichi was good, one of the few remakes like Dawn of the Dead that wasn't an insult to the original.

Not for the squeamish though, since it has its share of spurting blood and a few severed limbs (but much less than Kill Bill 1).

Heh, watch the movie and you'll find out that "blind" and "samurai" are not exactly the most accurate terms to describe Zatoichi...

The "blind swordsman" is the more common description of master Ichi. And you must have missed the last sentence of the movie if you think either is inaccurate [ in this version ] .

I prefer the term "bone-setter" myself. 🙂

 
Envy is so-so, entertaining, but it should go way down the list of Movie's to see. Wait for it to come out on commercial TV.
 
I could not stand Envy at all... I dont even think I made it the entire way through that movie... sucked so bad...

I expected more out of Ben Stiller.
