went into this with high hopes, re: cronenberg. found it painfully bad while watching and couldn't wait for it to end. strangely, afterward had this feeling of wanting to see it again to reeavaluate. this thread reminded me to get on that. tr to follow.

I hope you didn't subject yourself to a second viewing. I just got around to watching this last night. I was really looking forward to it, given the reviews, but it was one of the worst movies I've seen in a long time. Except for maybe a 10 minute stretch in the middle of the movie there was absolutely nothing even remotely good about this movie. How can so many reviewers get something so wrong? And William Hurt got an OSCAR nomination for this????????
