I have written up my own opinion based on what I saw in the film, but I do also recognize that it has an incredibly mean spirited nature to it, which can be off putting, let alone the fact that many of the characters can be seen as unlikable. Still, the fact is that I did like these characters for all their flaws and what have you. And I especially liked Oliver Tate, but if one can't get on board with his persona, then the whole film is pretty much a miss. I can forgive the film's approach to pretension, simply because I did get laughs out of the film and enjoyed myself during it.Aaron Neuwirthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15854159430320413312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4565432792166624717.post-64869638238886983632011-06-24T09:58:49.205-07:002011-06-24T09:58:49.205-07:00What a beautifully written and thoughtful review. ...What a beautifully written and thoughtful review. What a shame that "Submarine" possessed none of these qualities. Comparing this film to "Rushmore" is something akin to blasphemy for me. It’s like comparing a bowl of chocolate pudding to a bowl of excrement. Both might look similar superficially, but each has a decidedly different flavor.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
