Review of Pontypool (2009) by Simon O — 09 Jun 2012
What on earth was the message in this movie? It tried to hard to be incredibly deep but I think it just ended up being a pile of incomprehensible mush. Maybe I'm wrong, but I couldn't decipher any metaphorical meaning from this.
I think you might just be flat-out wrong, not stupid, but wrong if you think this is any kind of cohesive satire. Really torn on this one because while it was intelligent and most of the negative reviews I see are either in the vein of "this was ST00pud, concept was dum" or "MORE GORE!!!" However, I think liking this means you didn't actually know what this meant (because it means nothing) and you like it cause it purports to be smart.
