The Manchurian Candidate
Has anyone else seen it yet? I wasn't planning on seeing it, however a bunch of friends were going so I tagged along. All in all, I'd recomend checking it out if you like semi-disturbing, out-there films.
All in all, I don't think it's that good of a movie (well, I guess I just have a few questions about the story I need to have cleared up). Hoever, I liked it because it wasn't what I was expecting and was brave enough to be a little more disturbing than I think most films are recently.
Does anyone know why Spoiler: Denzel killed the vice-presedent? It seems like he didn't have to now that the FBI was aware of what was going on. And was the original crazy guy (at the begining of the film) murdered or did he drown naturally? I either missed it or it went unexplained.
Here's what I posted in the "rate the last film you saw" thread:
"I was semi-dragged into seeing this movie. I tend to stay away from Denzel Washington movies as of late seeing he's been used *so* many times. The movie was very interesting though. I guess I wasn't well informed, but it was totally different than what I expected, and I think this is generally the consensus for everyone as a few people even left early as they weren't expecting/couldn't take a semi-disturbing, intense film. I'd recomend seeing it, even if it's just because it's different than most blockbusters out these days."
