Seems to be a wealth of them out there - films that simply make no sense whatsoever and leave you pondering WTF was that all about for days after

Well heres two to get it started...

1) Mulholland Drive - biggest WTF ever, but some good scenes in it
2) I Heart Huckabees

Anyone care to explain either of these or add any others?

Neil

 

Revolver - but, looking back, I think it was just plain crap.

 

"The Deer Hunter". Daft title, stupid film, no point, boring

Alcazar

 

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas :S

 

Donnie Darko

 

new war of the worlds film.

 

I second that. I watched it again today, still don't really get it.

 

i think it was deep blue sea... WTF???!!! it never even started if you ask me, that title may be wrong though! cant remember!!!! about to divers who got forgotten, THE END.

 

Thought most films were like that

 

Avalon

I love films like this which dont fully explain everything, and leave you to do some thinking! Also its great when theres various ways of interpreting some aspects, and this leaves it open to debate.

 

open water?

and i'll 3rd donnie darko...WHHHAAAATTTT??

 

thats it, open water! what a waste of time and money that was!

 

Damn right, worst piece of **** I've seen in a long time

 

I saw Vanilla Sky at the cinema when it was released. I got it, and thought it was ok, but some bloke a few rows down from me stood up near the end just as all was revealed and yelled "this is a load of sh1te" while pointing at the screen, then walked out. I guess he didnt get it.

My own nomination? The Blair Witch Project. WTF???? loads of irritating screeching and crying, then it ends. erm.....

 

Thought both of them were awful ........

 

I will 4th Darko kind of, but a thought it was brilliant

 

Whinny the pooh - the piglet movie... storyline was OK, but the ending was cr4p

 

5th vote for Donnie Darko here plus the first half of 'eternal sunshine of the spotless mind'

 

The Cube.

 

Another Blair Witch here what an awful film, I've never seen so many people get up and walk out of one film. I saw Open Water last night and yes it's a B Movie saved only by the **** and flange at the start, then its all down hill.

 

I get a bit moody when people say films are **** or pointless because they haven't understood them. I managed / trained in a call centre for a while and would hear "'kin' crap innit" and "that films stupid". Actually, the viewer was feckin' crap and stupid and the film just required some thought. Inevitably, these imbeciles would thoroughly enjoy films where the plot was, like the viewer, quite simple.

DD is definately an odd one but also a favourite of mine.

Lord of the Rings !
At the end I did the standing up and pointing at the screen thing. A guy about half a dozen saets along from me said "thank **** ! I thought I was the only ont thinking that"

 

SOLARIS!

enough said about that b*lloks

 

My favourite film of all time Im shocked!

 

It doesn't make sense until the end. Even then I had to watch it again to really understand it. The main part of the film is all in her head.... the other woman (the perfect success) is who she really wants to be. I can't remember the ending though.

 

6th from me. Totally WTF....

Couldn't face watching it a 2nd time to try to understand it....

p.s. what's the standing pointing at the screen thing in LOR??

 

I can't even sit and begin to watch a film full-stop! Anybody else think films are shít and pointless?

 

Yeah me, last time I went to the cinema it was to see Platoon which was quite a few years ago.

Cinemas for me would be a total no-no if I can't manage it in my own home.

 

Can't believe nobody has mentioned MAGNOLIA!

Now, that is a steaming pile of tripe and I still wish I could hunt any of the critics down who raved about this celluloid disaster and caused me to wait 2.5hours of my life watching.
