yes. the book is awesome. this movie looks like a piece of shit.

although knowing the 'gimmick' of the book though will probably decrease a lot of the enjoyment for you. It caught me off guard when I read it and I thought it was an amazing book. it won a handful of literary awards in 2004 or whenever it came out

Had this one on the queue for years now, but skipped it for his most recent book "Thousand Autumns of Jacob De Zoet." Quality stuff.

It's gone from the upper 80s to 59% on Rotten Tomatoes this week.
When are we watching this, bros?

Saw an afternoon screening, it was cool. Broadbent and Whishaw are solid as expected. The post-apoc shit needs subtitles as the dialogue was virtually indecipherable. First act is understandably all over the place but it pieces together well after that.

I don't know what's more confusing.

This movie or the Wachowksis' gender.
