    “Maybe a second splash will reduce some of the effects… Immediately made it worse!” 

    Love Will Ferrell in pretty much all his movies. This was a little bit of a silly plot, but he made it so enjoyable to watch. 

    Lots of funny lines

    Very well made movie. Could be argued that the beginning was slower paced, but it set up the entire plot and was of utmost importance. 

    Colin Farrell was an absolute menace this entire film and I loved it. He played such a good character. All the acting was superb and Ralph Fiennes was a fantastic antagonist as always. 

    Really enjoyed how the ending tied together the whole plot and it came back around beautifully to the killing of the child…

    I was never a dinosaur kid but this is cinema history, and I’m just now witnessing this for the first time. Got to watch this with Chandler and this is his favorite movie so that made the experience even better.

    Howard Shore really captured Silence of The Lambs with this score, but he took it to a whole different level. 

    The concept of this movie was so unique and intriguing. Acting was top notch with great characters, even though there were really only 3 that talked. All 7 sin kills were each displayed in such a graphic way, much further than even I could imagine. 

    Lastly, the ending was hands down the greatest ending in cinema history. Unfreakingreal. Got chills twice in the last 20 minutes and was quite literally on the edge of my seat. A perfect ending to a perfect movie.
