Review of Funny Games (1997) by Deer. — 13 Mar 2008
What's there is uselessly cruel. When it runs out of it inflicts cruelty on the audience by breaking the fourth wall in a way that is not profound or disturbing or clever -- it is insulting. Ask yourself this question before dismissing what I've said: Would you sit there and smile as the concession attendant at the theater spit in your popcorn? No.
This director more or less does this to his own story, and thus the people watching it as well...
