apparently and a massive head wound be the cure for homicidal tendency and turn a murderous sociopath into a lovable and oafish dog catcher . also ( this one for the lady ) and it seem that the front gate of a psychiatric hospital be an overlooked hot spot for meet potential mate . those be just two of the approximately 23 absurdity be suppose to accept for this movie to have any meaning . i love movie and i believe and a i be assume many american do ( forgive me if i be wrong ) and that hollywood turn out the best product . i have come to learn how sadly naive and brainwash i be and 2 ) how much more sophisticated european or asian cinema be in comparison to it american counterpart . i watch this allegedly disturbing psychological thriller the night follow a viewing of a japanese movie call suicide club . a the camera fade on walter sparrow happy little family enjoy some quality time around a prison visit room table ( not to mention the patronizing voice over extol the virtue of do the right thing ) and i suddenly have an epiphany . i have just finish watch a movie that leave me feel a though i would just have a glass of water when i really want a beer . my thirst be sate and but it be strictly utilitarian . the premise be mildly interesting and but the story itself and with it innumerable coincidence ( how do we explain her find the book . we will just say something like and . or do the book find her . they will buy that ) and gap plot hole ( why do wifey take the skeleton . ) and predictability and and obligatory happy end and turn out to be just another hollywood hack job . additionally and the casting of jim carrey be just wrong . at any moment and i felt he be capable of break into some shtick from one of his stupid comedy or in living color . jim carrey a a tattooed hard boil police detective who enjoy bondage and rough sex . didn not buy it for a second . you want disturb . deeply disturb . watch suicide club . the story surround the mysterious mass suicide of 54 school girl . the film open with a group of giggle high schoolers mull about on a subway train platform . we then watch in horror a they line up and hold hand and and happily throw themselves in front of a fast moving commuter train . needless to say and much chaos ensues . that as far a i be go to go with the story line because i encourage the reader to see the film . in fact and i be not sure if i could outline the plot even if i want to . what begin a a straightforward mystery quickly descend into a madhouse of grotesque imagery . do i understand the movie . no not initially like many of the foreign film my girlfriend have introduce me to . so naturally and i think it be bad . but this one linger in my mind . i go to bed think on the film and awake the next morning and look it up on imdb . i read some of the viewer comment and be astonish at 1 ) the insight others have derive from the film and 2 ) the fact that i have so thoroughly miss the whole point of the movie . i realize that i be so used to be spoon feed the message from hollywood and that when confront with a film that actually require the viewer to participate to actually think for themselves and i be totally unequipped . it a if i have be condition to check my brain at the door of the theater . be i say that suicide club be the great movie ever make . of course not . it have it flaw and many of which be report adroitly by the imdb reviewer . be i say that all american movie be bad and all foreign movie be good . again of course not . my point be that there a whole world of film make outside of hollywood a body of work that engage the viewer while force them to think and question movie that do not telegraph plot twist and follow a strict linear sequence and and above all and do not insult the intelligence of the person watch . i look forward to expand my mind while explore this new world of film that doesn not do the thinking for me .
