    How to make your movie fail at the box office:
    1. Call it "The Dinner".
    2. Make it about a dinner.
    3. Open against the annual May Marvel movie.

  • @heymistercarter.
    @heymistercarter. 7 років тому +19

    This sounds like that movie Carnage that Roman Polanski directed a few years ago, where Jodie Foster and John C. Reilly's son and Kate Winslet and Christoph Waltz's son had a fight, and they're talking about how the kids should get together and apologize, yet they're tearing each other apart as the day goes on. And on a side note, Gettysburg isn't considered the bloodiest battle of the Civil War, Antietam is.

    • @heymistercarter.
      @heymistercarter. 7 років тому +2

      I mean, Gettysburg was one of the major turning points in the war in the Union's favor and probably had more casualties overall, but Antietam had the most casualties over the course of a single day. Gettysburg happened over the course of 3 days, Antietam was only one.

    'The Dinner' was based on a novel. I read this book by the original author . I also read a book he wrote about two families on vacation.
    The adults mostly sleep and stare at a pool. The
    Then something happens and it just proves both families are icky.

  • @gabe_s_videos

    I feel like the idea of parents struggling with the fact that their kids are horrible people could have been done well, but by the sound of it, the movie is too detached from these characters and has too many plots going on to make it work.

    Somewhere online (imdb?) I read that the author of the book supposedly walked out of the premiere straight after the screening because he hated the adaption so much. Never read the novel but wasn't there a Dutch one based on the same source? Usually chamber dramas are quite interesting to me, so any chance the Dutch one is better? Anyone seen it?

    • @hingeslevers
      @hingeslevers 7 років тому +1

      Dutch version is "meh." Herman Koch's subtle and surreal humor apparently only works in book form. I don't know about the Italian version though.

    • @n.esthermorgenthau3497
      @n.esthermorgenthau3497 7 років тому +2

      Oy, as a writer I feel awful for Mr Koch, I can't imagine how it must feel to have your work butchered, and even worse to have other adaptions be merely mediocre. According to Google, the Dutch one seemed to be 'meh' indeed as hingeslevers put it aptly, nevertheless still a bit of a shame, frankly. Some prose works simply don't translate well to film, I suppose. I am quickly looking up the Italian one though just out of curiosity.

    I read the book. Like most Dutch literature, it's deeply cynical and weirdly dark, and about failure. I don't remember anything about three quarters the shit they discussed here. Ain't no Gettysburg in there. Also, no crazy dude, he's a shitbag politician. The best part of the book was the protagonist's internal monologue about how he hates everything, especially the snooty waiter.

    Sounds like an American adaptation of the BBC black comedy "The Dinner Party" with Alun Armstrong (the best thing in Split Second, Sleepy Hollow and Van Helsing not that it says much) and Rupert Graves (the voice of Rupert fucking Bear) as obnoxious right wing slobs with shitty kids. Just see the original. It has a chainsaw-golf club duel in the back garden.

    The movie is great and they got amazing actors. Reason why being is it makes your skin crawl. CAUTION: white people will hate this movie!! or just any powerful people that may have done bad things and needed to keep secret about. The movie shows how some white parenting can make their kids do stupid stuff due to spoiling them. Some affluent rich people story about protecting their kids no matter what kind of wrongdoings they have done. This movie can also be applied to American politics, as going to war and such is a must to protect its citizens. I really do appreciate the movie, its real and its so uncomfortable just watching lol but hey its a differnt kind of movie

      Easy there CinemaSins, don't make me defend this movie. I've witnessed homeless people sleeping in ATMs. They address the cameras in the movie, the camera in the ATM was detroyed. And there have been plenty of teachers in the news who were found to be mentally ill. As with most jobs, it happens.
      But yes, the movie was terrible.
