I watched Detention. I know I'm not the first person to say this, everyone has said it, but I can't not say it. What the gently caress was that movie?! One of the reviews on Netflix said it was like a shark, in that a shark needs to keep swimming or else it will die. Detention can't stay still at any point, each scene seems to last for no longer than 2 minutes. It's a clusterfuck. I lost count of the times I thought, "Oh, okay, this scene is about...gently caress, it shifted again." I think I like it, but mainly because I appreciate how balls out crazy it went. I was also worried this thread had built up the insanity too much. It did not even scratch the surface.

I'm trying very hard to not say anything about what the movie is actually about. Partially because it's hard to sum up, but also because I think going in blind helps. It's impressive it was even made in the first place.

This is only the second feature film this director made. I never saw Torque, because it looked like a by-the-numbers action flick. But now? I think I have to watch it. I know it won't be as crazy as Detention (I mean, how could it be?) but is it insane as well?

edit: Crank != Torque.

Crank and Crank 2 are both fun, but the movie you're thinking of is Torque, which is pretty good. It's like half the cast and crew recognized the joke, and half didn't.

Oh drat, you're right, I did mean Torque.

Way to drop the ball HBO. Hope the exclusivity deal is relatively short.

Looks like 3 months.
