after seeing great reviews about this film, i've decided to watch it, and boy what a loss of time it was... The main story is unclear, full of irrelevant details and boring situations, all in goal to fill a movie with feeling that something is going around. It keeps you waiting for things to unravel, till the end of movie. But guess what? End doesn't unravel anything and you are left with feeling of pointless waste of time. Worst of all, the two irritating characters are just begging to receive punishment for their evil and stupidity so much that I desired to be in the movie just to end their pointless egzistence. But in the end where you might get a satisfaction of watching that irritating characters you get end titles... I felt like cheated wife, full of anger for them and despise for director lame lame movie... director shame on you! u people that gave a 10 stars to this lame movie, shame on you - you are tasteless! shame on you!

I would give this film a 2 or a 3, but since the votes are stacked in the positive range, I figured I would give a 1 to help balance it out.I came in with an open mind, and knew nothing of the ratings when I watched this movie. I enjoyed it, for the first third of the movie. The cinematography was good, and the cast/plot seemed to be well thought out, until...I realized they weren't. After awhile, the vague and intriguing plot didn't pan out. It seemed like it was setting up to go somewhere, then never left the driveway. The actors and their relationships felt like they had potential, and I really wanted to enjoy them, but found I couldn't. All of the interactions between the under 30's were stale, lifeless, and forced. When was the last time you saw a group of guys who drink, hang out in bachelor apartments, and frequent topless bars (receiving a lap dance or two) say something like "hey man, when are you going to realize you can't treat women like that. Life is full circle man, that (dehumanizing women) is going to come back and bite you." Ouch. Once I realized how bad the interplay was between the characters, I couldn't stop noticing it.Also, I was reading into the plot and analyzing it throughout the whole movie more than I realized I needed to. The plot seemed open ended, and I kept pondering where it was headed and what the connections were. I actually thought, for most of it, that the younger friends were flashbacks of the older men, or symbolic at least of how their history panned out to make the older men who they were. I would have found that more interesting than what actually occurred... which was just two mildly interesting sub-plots (to no actual plot) taking place in parallel.Finally, the ending felt like it may have saved the movie, but it in fact killed it. I realize the writer was trying to cut it slightly short and leave it open-ended and up for the viewer to decide what happened, a "lady and the tiger" storyline... but I actually have no idea what happened at the end. It was cut so short, that I was left clueless as to what happened... and frankly, it took me about 3 minutes after the cut to black to stop caring. I'm trying to think of an analogy to the lady and the tiger here. Perhaps, if after the hero was in front of the two doors, trying to make his decision, we see him begin to quote Hamlet, and the princess pulls out a pistol and asks her father if it is loaded, then casually rests the pistol against her temple, then the story "fades to black," then we hear a pistol shot, Hamlet misquoted , and the sounds of a tiger in heat. Basically, after the story ends, you have no idea what happens. That is what I'm trying to convey with the analogy.While I really wanted to enjoy this movie, and maybe even keep it on the back shelf of my DVD collection, I really can't. The character interactions and the plot make it a large failure. Wes Anderson's "Bottle Rocket" is one of my favorite movies because of it's off-beat characters, but "Wild Seven" feels like a failed attempt to recreate the dynamic cast from "Bottle Rocket" other "group of friends" based movies.

saw this minutes ago and looked it up cause i had never heard of it. though i think a ten OR nine is way high for this picture, i must say i enjoyed it. it's way to short, to start and the narrative gets shaky from time to time, but it's a fun story....a quick little ride. a couple of the younger actors didn't do it for me, but they seem like they're probably new to the whole thing. what hooked me from the getgo was brains painting the ceiling..gotta love when a character gets his head blown off in the first six minutes...either way, i felt like the story didn't want me to know he was his father, but the story also didn't tell me i wasn't supposed to know that, so...that was weak. but overall, i enjoyed it and thought it was worth the watch.

Great movie. This is what comes to mind after seeing this movie. I saw a trailer for this film on youtube and was really drawn to it. So I looked it up online and bought it. Well, the day i got it in the mail I made a B line to my DVD player and pressed play. Right away I was sucked into this movie by the cool camera angles and directing style. I really have to watch what I say though because i don't want to put a spoiler on here. But I really enjoyed the line up of actors in this movie and some new young actors I have never seen, but I know I will in the future. I highly recommend the movie to all and look forward to more work from this director.
