Deja-P.U. All Over Again... - The Official RAZZIE® Forum

Here's the brief version of my thoughts on the ending. The film seems to find the ending to be a happy one. Despite the fact that everyone left on Earth dies a horrifically painful death.

It's been said that you should be careful for what you wish for. Yesterday I wished for either an awesomely bad movie or a f*cking awful one. The horror that Is New Year's Eve falls into the later category.

The good:

Rose Byrne: Byrne is decent here as a MILF with a creepy mom.

The plane scene: The plane crash near the beginning of the middle of the movie is a spectacular (and terrorfying) set piece.

The bad:

The end: Trying to describe what's bad with this movie's ending would take pages.

The awesomely bad:

The special effects: There's a hilarious scene where Nicolas Cage's son has a vision where a bunch of shoddily designed CGI forest animals are on fire. The spaceship near the end was hilarious too.

Nicolas Cage: I've always found The Wicker Man's status as a bad movie classic dubious. Sure, the scenes where Nic is beating the sh*t out of women (in or out of the infamous bear-suit) are classic, but everything else is deadly dull. His acting here isn't as hilarious as The Wicker Man's, but the movie is less painful. Also, "The caves won't save us!"

If this review seems slim, it's because I'm still traumatised by New Year's Eve. At least I didn't have to pay. Grade: C+

Next-up: Orphan!

That's not really the issue.

In order to have "new things" in movies,filmmakers experiment.

However,the fact itself that it's different,isn't good or bad.But what they did in this movie,clearly isn't good.

Well,the problem is,unlike with NEXT,this endin'is easier to defend.

Nevertheless,it was good in general.It was berry deep.

But it has nothin'to do with the tone of the rest of the movie.Once again,it ends,and it seems like the numbers he saw,and all that "mythology" was pointless.

Well, I liked it because it was different. I don't think there was anything like it before and it fits with the religious tones throughout the film. Oh, and it's very beautiful.

It was ripped by critics'cuz,just like it's "predecessor",it had a bad ending,and if a movie has it,regardless of how much you enjoyed the reast,you leave the theatre angry.

I thought the ending was thought-provoking!

Well, it's not up for any Razzies, but that still don't take away from the fact it was ripped a new one by critics.

Yeah, but both this movie and "Next", the ending is not worth watching the rest of the movie in order to get to it.

Well,I think that's up for debate.I enjoyed the 2/3 of both of'em,and I know a lot people did too(at least one of those two).
