Edward travels to the private island of Summerisle, where Willow lives in an odd community that plant fruits, and she reveals that Rowan is actually their daughter... (imdb)
It's films like these that made you sad. You watch it and you see that all the actors are trying their hardest, but this movie is SO BAD. In some bits I was crying of laughter (Nick Cage in a bear suit punching a woman). Bad movie Labute, Bad movie.
So so remake of an already awesome film. Cage is miscast and the changes to the story are unnecessary and come across as just silly. One of Cage's worst performances.
An unspeakably horrible remake of a cult classic. All the sinister feminist updating is pretentious and rather nasty. Nicholas Cage just goes through the motions, cashes his paycheck, pays a few gambling debts, and moves on.
"All the fertility rites in the secluded Pacific Northwest island of Summersisle can't bring life to Neil Labute's barren remake of 1973's The Wicker Man." - Nick Schager
There's two sides to this. On one hand this is a terrible story of one emasculated man being destroyed by a society of psycho-bitches. On the other, killing him won't bring back their goddamned honey.
Holy hell, I've been stabbed by toothless hobos with more social grace and charisma than Cage's character in this flaccid bore. I don't think there's a way for this movie to bee any worse. Hahaha! Get it? With.. because of.. with the bees... and then... bear suit... Eh, forget it.
I don't know why everyone hates this movie so much, as it seemed mostly forgettable. It was too silly to be scary and too dull to be funny. I really thou - OH NO NOT THE BEES! NOT THE BEES!
A waste of time on all fronts. Contrived and pointless. Nic Cage couldn't act his way out of a wet paper bag, and I bet he's tried. It's ending is more funny then shocking, unlike the original. The only reason to watch this is to laugh at it.
This will most definitely be my lowest rated Nicolas Cage movie, because it was the least entertaining, but it still featured Nicolas Cage, and therefore, go rent it.
A totally pointless remake. No suprises, and the boring direction and poor acting resulted in no suspense what so ever. Unimaginative, the only enjoyable bit being an 'I'm I celebrity get me out of here' moment with the bees head gear.
Extremely wonky if this indeed is NOT an intentional comedy. Some redeeming moments as well; Cage's "walking nightmares" kind of work, some fun dialogue, there's relative suspense, and it's always fun to see LeeLee. But the bees scene proves that Cage wasn't taking this seriously. But he sure can smack a bitch. The actual wicker man was a neat concept as far as sacrifices go. The original theatrical ending is better than the unrated one; more LeeLee! Y'know what, fuck it, see this movie.
Apparently Neil LaBute didn't get the original when he wrote the remake. Bees? Feminists? Bear suits? What happened to the pagan ritual plot? Ah well, five points for hobbling Nicholas Cage, something I've wanted to do since "Con Air".
