Terrible, foul picture. Intentionally anti-moral. The director was quoted: "If you walk out of this movie, you don't need it. If you see it through, you do."

The acting is stellar but honestly, there would be no excuse for it not to be when oh, say someone is trying to kill you. I'm guessing this movie is trying to teach us something but it was just sort of sick, horrifying, depressing and glamorizing.

The first part of the movie was awesome , and would give it 9/10 , but the second part ( after the thing with the boy .. ) was terrible. All went downhill after that. The thing with the remote control made no sense. Would give that part a 1/10.

Not a bad film, I will have to see the original which will probably be better.The remote control scene was absurd and ruined the film for me.

Not really sure what to think of this one. After the thing with the boy it was indeed quite slow, leaving me wondering where the film was going. I like the circular ending though. And as for the remote control thing? Why??

Almost word for word like the original, probably just to reach a wider audience. Not a bad film, just incredibly surplus to requirements.

Pretty dumb all around. Moves incredibly slow especially after the thing with the boy. Pitt wasn't scary at all and I love how they finally get a phone and it conveniently doesn't work. Also the remote control thing was ridiculous. Tries to teach something - but fails miserably.

Funny Games is infinitely more sophisticated than its distant compatriots in the horror film milieu. It's elegantly sardonic, narratively clairvoyant, and fiendishly polite. It's more than just a distillation and radical reinterpretation of the junk-art horror aesthetic, it's completely genre defying as it takes on metaphysical themes that veer into the philosophical. Haneke reveals his mastery of the medium with a near perfect execution of ideas.

Michael Pitt makes a good psycho kid. While watching this movie you'll often feel the urge of screaming at the computer/tv screen to tell the mother and father not to act so damn stupid...

Why did the director wait more than a decade for this remake and then add NOTHING original to the film. I swear even the clothes are the same as the original. I get it, its not a reboot, not a new movie. Its a remake, by the same director, with the same script. But for entertainments sake, dont make exactly the same movie with English actors,improve for fucks sake! Still,an entertaining watch.And i actually preferred the acting from the 2 bad dudes in this one more than in the original.

Not much to say about this film, if you're at all interested after what you've heard about it I would highly recommend watching it... with an open mind empty of expectation. They won't be met whatever they may be.

This is probably the most disturbing movie I have ever seen. Directed by the great Michael Haneke, this post-modern movie is essentially an essay on movie violence and "gorn" / "torture porn" or, to put it simply, anti-Saw. The acting on all sides is superb. Oh, and extra props go to "Funny Games" for making brilliant use of John Zorn's music. Twice. Once in the opening credits. However, it is best seen with friends if you're sensitive, since the emotions might be too much to handle alone.

I have no experience with the original version of Funny Games, but I have to say after all is said and done I really liked this movie. The atmosphere is unsettling and at the beginning it's a little campy reminscent of Lynch's style; what you end up getting is a gripping, tense, provacative thriller that does a good job with its mature subject matter. I've heard that the original is significantly better, and if that's the case then it must be one hell of a movie 'cause this one was great.

Quite a disappointing movie, we don't come to know whatsoever as to who the two serial killers really are. Also the remote control scene and the direct conversation scenes with the audience really put me off.

Thought Haneke could have taken a good concept even further. The few times the fourth wall was broken, I got really excited, mostly because I saw the potential. It just didn't happen nearly enough to justify the gimmick. I wanted more "fuck you's" directed right at the audience or none at all. Oh, and the acting is good. REALLY want to see the original now.
