Review of Audition (2000) by Kammi666 — 10 Dec 2010

Great movie, as someone stated before, very ninjalike lol. There were times when the acting was sub par (the scene on the stairs leading to the bar, when he sees the tongue) but when Im watching horror, I expect some bad acting, its almost as big a part of the genre as blood and gore, for all I know they were doing it on purpose.

Anyway, loved it, and I did not find it boring at all. My advice is this: when your watching a movie STOP WAITING for things to happen. Sit down, shut up, and let it take you where it wants to. If you actually pay attention to the first 2/3 of the movie, youll witness some great (and disturbing/sexist/narcissistic) character development, some comedic moments, and the joys of everyday life/business as usual/daily routine. This is what makes the ending hit that much harder. If the movie was not paced this way, it would not be memorable or as great.

Another thing- the rehash. There were things he experienced that he never could have known about, that makes a lot of people gripe but again, stop expecting things to be handed to you and you'll get it. Maybe the girl was telling him this while he was tripping. A movie does not have to overexplain things to 'work' if you have an imagination ^^.

Also- I loved the ending because I have a thing against feet. ew.
