I liked the start of Funny Games but the most painful thing was the director shooting himself in the foot. It got too self aware all too sudden and totally ruined the feel of the movie. The build-up was great and the actual delivery was ok but then it just got too 'meh' in the end.
The remake? Well that's just a bag of unnecessary fail. No respect for any director who who remake a movie shot for shot (*cough* Gus van Sant) but to do your own?
The remake was only saved complete disgrace by having Watts and Roth in.
