Anybody else seen \"A History of Violence\" (Possible Spoilers)
I was pretty excited about going to see it and boy was I dissapointed. Just curious if anyone actually like this movie.
I thought it was like if a drunk 16 year old wrote a movie this is probably what it would be.

I agree, it wasn't boring but it just never really went anywhere.
Reminds me of Monster's Ball where all the critics love it and nobody else.

I liked it. It had good character development with the son and wife, and intrigue with Vigo Mortensens characer and William Hurt.
Very simple movie though, which I like. I like to watch a movie once and fully understand it. Plus, a full-frontal of that actress from the Cooler.

I liked it a lot. This is not a simple popcorn movie. If that's what you wanted, I can see how you might be disappointed [/ QUOTE ]

Saw it on Friday and really enjoyed it, its a very visual film eg the last scene amonst others. I think the pacing was off though I would have kept the Ed Harris guy stalking them a bit more.
Has anyone read the comic book of it interested how it compares.

Re: Anybody else seen \"A History of Violence\" (Possible Spoilers)
I really didn't expect that at all. I really like more of the unsual movies but I found this one to be like the other poster said, "meh".
I hate the same old crappy movies as much as the next guy, but I thought this one didn't develop all that well and didn't quite come together to provide any sort of cohesiveness. Just my opinion.

The one bit I found bizarre though was the sons character development or are we to assume he developed his fighting skills naturally form his father.
