    I actually just watched the first half of this movie for the first time tonight. Had to pause it to let my dog out and now go to bed. Not sure about finishing it. That’s just me.

      Two words: Chekov’s Buttplug

      You’re missing out. It’s a slow boil, but then it kicks into gear. Not to mention that everything else at the beginning makes sense and has callbacks. It’s such a thrilling ride!

      That movie is such a rollercoaster you owe it to yourself to finish. It’s just an accelerating spiral of weirdness.

      It takes a solid 45 minutes before it even begins to get rolling, and by the end it’s absolute pandemonium. It’s wonderful.

      Honestly, it’s fine. If the humor doesn’t click with you it could be a struggle.

      It didn’t click with me, either. I think it’s fine, but it’s a weird one to have been the mainstream hit that it was.

    I did not like Alan Wake 1 and hated that movie. Alan Wake 2 is just a GPU benchmark to me.
