I think the dinosaurs hinder. I didn't like anything but the Pitt and kids vignettes. Dinosaurs, and creation of the universe, and Sean Penn and the whole ending felt like trying way too hard.
Sir? I think you have a problem with your brain being missing.

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

I liked Savages, though it was pretty gruesome in parts. Enjoy the screaming nightmares your daughter is going to be having courtesy of the decapitations, rape scene, and torture scene with dripping ruptured eyeball and death-by-burning, Parents Who Thought A Movie About Ménage à Trois Pot Dealers Warring With A Drug Cartel Would Be Good Family Entertainment For A Seven-Year-Old!

On the plus side, the opening minutes of the film gave her a much more appealing introduction to the mechanics of sex than the filmstrips I remember from 5th grade. And she'll know better than to waste time on frivolous stuff when a cartel is moving in on her territory.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
What was its threesomeness like? I am sure I saw an interview where Blake said that the two guys had a relationship with each other, not just with her. Does it count as poly, not just cheating? And if poly was everyone multiplying, not just her?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
They sell it that they both sleep with her but not each other, although they "love" each other. If the dudes HAD been fucking, that would have made the film a little more interesting to me.

If they'd done that, I might have gone and seen it, despite my severe lack of like for Travolta (I'm curious to see if Kitsch will pay off, am curious if blank slate Lively needs ever bring anything other than a blank slate to work in the morning (she's that kind of pretty enough that--maybe not. It would be an easy paycheque of sorts, but fragile.).
Were there at least sloppy seconds? In deed if not in words? PLEASE???

They don't ever show the guys doing anything with each other without O in the middle, but Salma's character kind of calls out that Blake's is the third wheel in the relationship. And Chon has a line about telling Ben he loves him (or vice versa, I forget which) that morning whose tone implies that it wasn't said over the breakfast table.

I hated that Lively's character was, well, pretty much nonexistent. Being pretty and having sex seemd to be the extent of it. These two guys are totes in love with her, but there's nobody home.
