Observe and Report

Anyone watched this?

I didn`t fancy it, but recently seen that Tarantino was bigging it up as one of the films of the year and loads of others have been saying it`s a misunderstood comedy that will be remembered as a cult classic year down the line.

Well watched it tonight and thought it was s***.

Just wondering if the general opinion of people on here is the same, or I`m just one that "didn`t get it".


It must be said I`m not a big Seth Rogen fan, liked Knocked Up and Zach and Miri, but wasn`t too keen on Pineapple Express and found him annoying at times in the other films, but in Observe and Report it just seems the film as a whole is just s***e.

I thought it was great! Only film I can liken it to is Taxi Driver. Inspired comedy moments and Rogen is actually showing he is a good actor and not just a comedian with this and Funny People.

And Michael Pena is hilarious.

Thought it was OK - great soundtrack though.

I`ve heard that it`s not as good as Paul Blart, and even that wasn`t good apparently.

Paul Blart was woeful, only watched it as it generally got 2/3stars in most places so assumed it would be watchable. Was terrible though.

Observe and Report, I`ve spoken to a few people about and they`ve generally thought it was s*** aswell, so maybe it is a really is a marmite film. I generally like stuff that pushes the boundries of acceptability aswell, but just seemed forced or not funny.

Wasn`t keen on the Michael Pena charachter either.

You all heard correctly, it was pure s***.

A fractured joke at bipolar people that does nothing to enhance their reputation in the media and general public perception.

Rogen can act, but he comes across as an unlikeable c*** in this movie

Yup! thought it was a pile of crap.

Really struggle to see why anyone could think otherwise.
