    Agree completely about Saw and almost any David Lynch movie. I don't get the torture genre in general, and David Lynch needs to stop taking acid.

    Fargo - it was OK, but I never got why it was supposed to be a great movie.

    Napolean Dynamite - another one people heaped hyperbole on, and I could barely get through it

    X Files: I Want To Believe - what was the point?

    Twilight - teen vampire romance? and what was with that ghastly green hue they filtered this movie with? and the setting is in Forks, WA? not even a vampire is gruesom enough nor moribund enought to live in Forks, WA - the place is a rain forrest. The state of Washington has enough problems without having teenagers think that looking pasty white and near dead is cool or sexy (not that they didn't already look like that either). Stupid movie about a really dumb romance novel by a hackish author.

    I've seen Fargo once and haven't had the heart or stomach to watch it again. Maybe if it were a "great" film, I'd have done so. In any case what it's about is clear enough: the greed, gratuitous violence -- and above all -- stupidity of criminals.

    I liked Fargo. I think that it was partly based on real events. At least it had a plot unlike There Will be Blood.

    Fargo certainly had it's moments. Especially the wood chipper scene.
