Movies shouldn't be experiments

I'm pretty open minded when it comes to movies...I mean really, I can see the worth in almost anything...but my god..FUNNY GAMES is the worst movie I have ever seen. So slow, So frustrating, and the one time in the whole movie I cheered, the movie did this stupid infuriating "twist" that made me want to kick in the TV screen.


I'm one of those people though...I have to watch, even a terrible movie, 'til the end. I guess I was hoping for that redeeming last scene. Something that made all the frustration worth it...but no...not this time.


So if you've seen this...I'm sorry.
If you are tempted by the trailer, the way I was, DON'T DO IT! I figured since I wasted 2 hours of my life on this movie,
15 more minutes wouldn't hurt. Hopefully it will save others from the torture.
