Talk:Far Cry (2009)

Since this was a Uwe Bolle film, I avoided it. I assume it sucked? - Gunmaster45

You assume correctly. It wasn't quite as painful to watch as "BloodRayne" (the only other Uwe Boll film that I've seen). I'll give it that much. But it was still very painful to watch. The funniest thing to me was the fact that Til Schweiger can't speak English very well, so there are a whole bunch of references in the script to him being German. Even though he has an American name (like the character from the game) and is ex-U.S. Army SF. Ugh.

The fact that it had so much hardware was nice (including just about every long gun in H&K's catalog, plus much use of the P226), but even that was dulled by the fact that the gunfire sound F/X are terrible, and the fact that everyone in the movie has awful gun handling technique. -MT2008

I recently saw BloodRayne II on Sci-Fi and aside from a shaky camera it wasn't super bad. Guess I shut it off before it got really bad. - Gunmaster45

Balls to you, man

I didn't even have the nerve to watch this piece of shit. You got some balls to watch this and cap it. Excalibur01 03:55, 14 September 2009 (UTC)

I didn't have a good enough copy of the film to screencap it. Dunno if I'll do that, though maybe it looks nice enough in Blu-Ray that I could do it (with a gag in between my teeth, of course...) -MT2008 04:04, 14 September 2009 (UTC)

I wouldn't even watch the trailer of this piece of crap. The only redeeming qualities of Uwe Boll is that he will eventually die, or go bankrupt, seeing as how he finances his own "films" if you could call them that. These movies are worse then about 80% of those "Sy-Fy Original Movies". At least those are simply copies of good movies that are just done rather poorly. -W190009637

Jesus, is it really that bad? I didn't think even Uwe Boll could fuck up one of the finest video games of our time, but it seems he did. The trailer almost makes it look good, until you see Jack Carver is German, which gets a WTF from everyone. so I think I'll get a copy online, just to watch and laugh.

Oh come on. It's not THAT bad. I personally like to just shut off my brain and watch an action movie. Harkens back to the pre-Die Hard days. But bad news, Uwe Boll will never go bankrupt. He takes advantage of German tax law(or something) to make huge money even if his films tank. So, yeah. --ManiacallyChallenged 00:30, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

Whew. I tried to screen-cap it, but it didn't go well. The majority of the shots were unusable because of quality(a lot of camera movement) or darkness. I tried to post some of 'em, but whatever. This movie ain't work much more effort. --ManiacallyChallenged 04:59, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

Whats worse is that he probably wont go bankrupt, and these films will continue. Someone pointed out, either Game Revolution or Game Politics or some such, that there is a loophole inn German tax law that basically allows people to cheat on their taxes by financing a movie if it flops. It's just like The Producers but real. So his finances are only limited by how many people that don't want to pay taxes he can find.

yeah alot like the producers. well i got an idea everyone should goand see hisnext film so its really successfull so just like in producers he goes to jail. but this wont happen because i'd much rather shit my brain out through my eyes than watch his movies if you can call them that smish34
