Save your money for something good and enjoyable

Sadly Over-hyped

Overrated

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

This movie is more enjoyable as a comedy than anything else. The plot doesn't make sense, the scene transitions are poor, the circumstances are all horribly convenient, the soundtrack is shit, and the characters can't act very well. Combine that with the fact that this movie spent 10 million dollars and only got back 200 thousand! Pretty fun to watch though if you're drunk and don't take it seriously.

Okay so this movie was good up until Tabitha had the chance to save herself and her 2 friends. Like what !!! All she had to do was stab him again and make sure he was dead, and then the 3 of them would've lived. It seriously bothered me off that after everything, them 3 are alive and fine, only to have Tabitha mess it up. UghOther than this I enjoyed it though.I need more lines of text Which I find ridiculous.

I've just finished watching Amusement, and I must say I'm a little disappointed. Not because the film was bad, but because it had the potential of being so much better.The beginning is excellent. First the opening credits with pictures from a highschool yearbook, then three separate stories divided "Tarantino" style, each showing the killer in a different disguise so it makes him not so easy to recognize. Also, the killer himself was excellent, his maniacal psychotic laughter and modus operandi were really great. Also, the acting was decent and the soundtrack was good.Other than that? A sad unsuccessful attempt. The screenplay had some very amateur holes in it... In the 2nd story (Tabitha), it was painfully obvious that the "doll" was no doll but a man. In the final part - there was a use of a very annoying cheat we've seen way too many times: the victim manages to wound the killer, then leaves him to recover instead of making sure he doesn't get up. Also, a cell phone with no reception... how many more times are we going to have to see that?! Towards the end - the killer survives an impossible situation. Nearer to the end - another cheat, this time suffered by the killer when his car won't start. And even nearer to the end - the killer leaves his victim with a dangerous knife at her disposal? What gives?!Pity. With the good direction work and the excellent killer, a better story and screenplay were really necessary. All in all - the result is a mediocre film, at best. Watch it if you feel like it, if only for the cool killer. If you don't watch it, you won't really miss a thing.

Where do I start? Well first of all, the plot had potential, it's just unfortunate to see what was done with the idea. The film was riddled with inconsistencies from start to finish, the acting was bad on almost all of the characters, the cover (and synopsis) is pretty misleading, characters are boring, and the antagonist was especially ridiculous (his name should be the indication of that). And why is whatever the girls did to him as a child never explained or revisited? It just shows that one awkward and horribly acted scene when they're like five years old. Then at the end she briefly states that they "laughed at him". Gee, that's a really good reason to go on a killing spree. I realize he's supposed to be crazy, but shouldn't there be SOME reason for this pointless mess? And what about all the unexplained characters who seemed to have helped the killer, like the trucker, and the owner of that obvious non-hotel? It's also pretty hard to sympathize with any of the protagonists when they make the stupidest moves on earth. It's almost their own fault for the fact they've been captured when they had multiple obvious escape opportunities. There's so many unanswered questions to this movie, and I honestly don't want to know the answer to most of them. This thing fails even as an unintentional 'amusement'.
