So bad it's good!
Slither is one of those movies that i always forget about but when I finally rewatch it I enjoy it just as much as the first time.
It's over the top and gorey and a lot of over acting at it is freaking wonderful.
Plus to top it off i am always a sucker for a horror movie that uses practical effects.

Gory, bloody mess
I wouldn't say this is a bad movie, but it focuses a lot more on the gore factor than anything else. While the lead acting to me was quite impressive, there was a lot of unanswered questions and I would have liked a bit more of a back story to it. But it was a decent film as long as you like blood!

Ok, this nightmare cross between "Bloody Mary" and "Jumanji" was an interesting concept, I'll give it that. It played out rather boring and predictablr though. The acting wasn't too bad. The cinematography was a bit weak and the monster might have been better if he didn't speak. Overall this movie was only mildly entertaining. Something to throw on if you're bored. Otherwise, not really worth a watch.

Not bad
Finally saw this one and it entertained. The story was fairly predictable but still keeps your attention. The acting was good, although I think there could've been a better choice than Phoenix for the Joker. The cinematography was very well done. It was dark and fitting for the story and character. Overall this movie was pretty good, but I wouldn't say "great". Worth a watch!

Ok
This horror movie wasn't too bad as horror movies go. The acting was ok. The cinematography could've been a little better but it worked for what this was. The storyline was weird but ok. Overall I can't say it's great or anything. Just ok. But if you're short on horror movies to check out and haven't seein this one yet, it'll entertain. Worth a watch.

Let me say up front that this wasn’t the best movie I’ve ever seen. The storytelling was a little on the sloppy side, the pacing slow in parts- no pun intended. But it made me feel all kinds of things, positive and negative. And I went out and joined a gym after seeing it. Emotional response and personal motivation from a two-hour theater experience? Not bad.

The momentum
The message
Best since Saving Private Ryan
Simply the best war movie since Saving Private Ryan. Visual masterpiece and technical masterclass. It grips you in minute one and doesn't let go for two hours. A moving and memorable acheivement in every scene. Owes a lot to Kubrick, but that is no bad thing. See it!

Boring
The story of the rise and fall of prohibition-era Tom Powers. The Public Enemy currently sits at 100% on Rotten Tomatoes. I was excited to dive in to this movie, but I started drowning as soon as I hit the first ten minutes. And, no, it didn’t get better.
Acting: 7
Beginning: 4
The beginning is extremely slow. It was very hard for me to get engaged or even stay that way. I got out of the first ten minutes thinking, “If this is any indication of how the rest of the movie is going to be, count me out.”
Characters: 2
Cinematography/Visuals: 10
Conflict: 5
For a gangster movie, I was really hoping for a lot more action. The gun fights aren’t bad, but they happen so few and far between it makes the rest of the movie really boring. I never felt any stakes at any point with any of the characters either so the conflict is mediocre by comparison.
Entertainment Value: 5
I enjoyed watching a part of cinematic history. I respected that aspect at least. Overall, though, I was mildly entertained at best. I felt there were more lulls than high spots.
Memorability: 6
Pace: 4
I was bored out of my mind for most of the movie. Again, I expected more from a gangster movie. Too much talking, way too much exposition. The movie drags like a sloth.
Plot: 8
The story is solid. The execution was weak. There are a number of different ways this story could have been approached without there being so much repeated dialogue. Tom Powers has an interesting story that happened to get lost in translation with all of this.
Resolution: 2
I won’t spoil the ending, but it did nothing for the main character or his story overall. I felt we reached a climax where I had no sympathy for Tom because they had done little to nothing to that point to make me give a shit about him. Considering how bad the beginning was already, this was absolutely horrible.
Overall: 53Do I think The Public Enemy is a bad movie? Clearly, but I will say it’s not without a handful of shining moments. The camerawork is phenomenal particularly during gun fights. However, because I could never get to a point where I rooted for the main character, it made the movie as a whole hard to enjoy for me.
