I was pertaining to your one sentence post and not discussing silent films. I was just doing my job!

However I personally love the work of Murnau and Eisenstien's montage editing was revolutionary but not all film fans are into silent films.

The Unbelieveable Truth and Henry Fool are great little oddities from Hal Hartley.

This was going to be 'THE' movie for genre specific fans-post apocalyptic set up, 80's movie nods, British director and genuine movie fan too. Alas I have heard that it sucks which is a major dissapointment to me. Having grown up with films such as 'Death Race 2000', 'Escape From New York', 'Mad Max', 'The New Barbarians' and '2019 The Fall Of New York' I was hoping for a well crafted slice of exploitation . I will give it a watch when it hits shiny disc (next month) just to sate my curiosity.

It could have been good, but the plot just made no sense at all... it almost seemed like they were trying to make it into a satire film. There are a few good scenes worth seeing, but don't expect to be blown away.
There's a gimp, at least.

Marshall's two previous films-'Dog Soldiers' and 'The Descent' were so good too.

I was getting you confused with oojay. My post about silent films was actually directed at his comment

"yeah but sitting there for a 1+ hours with no dialogue kinda sucked."

You're right, the first half of Wall E was incredibly great, the second half sucked. The fact that you've got that flip flopped is why you didn't think Wall E was a "good movie."
