Supelice Dreadfully Boring

CommentsXp Best movie ever!

2freensel I saw this movie before reading any reviews, and I thought it was very funny. I was very surprised to see the overwhelmingly negative reviews this film received from critics.

Melanie Bouvet The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

Elain-ee If you want to know how London's 1999 club scene would have looked to a square, middle-class director who presumably loves every style of music except for techno then by all means, go ahead and watch this film!The mixes in the club scenes sound like they were put together by a dodgy vinyl-touch program (I think even Judge Jules would have turned his nose up at them). The club crowds are portrayed as hopelessly thrilled, ironically overdressed, chronically overjoyed, continuously boogeying and mind-blowingly high. They are so over the top that, in the end, they are just boring. I've gone to tons of clubs, raves and underground parties in London and if I would have ever walked into a party like the ones shown in this film, I probably would have assumed that someone was shooting a bad movie there and left. I probably would have been right, too, and that bad movie probably would have been Sorted.I am fully aware that Sorted shows London's techno scene the way that it might look to outsiders but that does nothing to improve my opinion of it. I cringe to think that this is how the finest days of London's club scene are being portrayed in foreign countries (I picked up my copy of Sorted in Germany). No wonder Europeans don't go clubbing in London anymore! As of now, I am still waiting for someone make a good film about London's club and party scene. And as for Sorted, it's going in the bin. Pah.

stubhall There were so many reasons why this movie could have been great. I'll give you three.1. Sienna Guillory. She is extremely hot in this movie and was the reason I chose to watch it in the first place.2. Tim Curry. Amazing bad guy and I always get excited seeing him in movies (even Home Alone 2).3. Jason Donovan. For all you Aussies and Poms out there, this is a rare treat. Former Neighbours star 80's heart-throb dressed in drag selling drugs.However none of these things nor the fact that the movie is about the drug/rave culture managed to make this movie even remotely interesting. The script was dull, the performances ordinary and despite the scenes with J.D and any scene with Sienna I found everything about this movie pretty passe. 3 out of 10.

deelkar This movie has one of the best club scenes, very good soundtrack (if you like techno/trance music)some situations (As the main character Carl begins to take drugs for example) are a little off reality, but the plot is entertaining, but the characters are all a little shallow...I'd not recommend you to see this film if you don't like techno musicFor the plot/acting alone this movie is a 4/10, with the really cool special effects and the club scenes and soundtrack it's a 7/10, but if you would want to go to the movies just to hear nice tracks and grab a little club feeling, it's a 10/10.the special effects are sometimes hidden, sometimes clearly visible. (i.e. fast moving clouds/sun/moon, morphing background, morphing cuts)I for one enjoyed it very much, a shame there was no dancefloor in the cinema ;)

pkpoker Starting like a hitchcock style thriller with shades of Get Carter and good use of music and effects ( to represent the effects of drugs) the film peters out to a very poor finish with an unconvincing climax Tim Curry should not be allowed in another film intended for anyone over 12 years old.
