Every negative criticism I see about this film is that it's boring. When did critics become such plebs? The most vapid cape-shit and franchise movies have higher ratings because they are fun and have quips. When did critics stop lauding movies that are real cinema? If this came out in the 1970's it would be considered a masterpiece. Fuck, I wouldn't be surprised if today's critics would complain about Apocalypse Now and The Deer Hunter because of their slow paces.

Didn't know this. I guess this settles it, critics have always been plebs.

Critics are just pretentious faggots who think their opinion matters

it's not boring per se, just repetitive and one note. VERY repetitive and one note.
As is usually the case, you're better off reading the book
silence is pretty boring if you know just about any history.
a movie about 16th century catholics walking around wondering why people are being tortured for their religious beliefs is absolutely absurd.
It's just a formality, /tv/.
Did anyone else get spooked?
>Martin Scorsese presents Saw
>anything better than okay
Remove your head from your ass.
Why is /tv/ so terrible?
Silence was a perfect film.

Damn, is that in it?
I haven't got to see it yet but as a Catholic it's kickass to see genuinely powerful imagery like that in film. kudos Scorsese
