Is Dusk Till Dawn that movie, where you don't see the vampires until the last 30 minutes or so?

Perhaps you are right, it was many years I saw it, and it was the first Chinese movie I saw, so maybe I read too much into it since I constantly had the feeling there were more behind the surface that I should understand.
Pretty Woman! It's my second worst all time choice, @CE, and you hit it!Originally posted by C Elegans
I wouldn't say it's the worst movie I've seen though - long ago, a friend fooled into watching "Pretty women" because he had misunderstood the reviews and believed it was a serious movie about life as a prosititute. And what about From dusk to dawn? I saw it as part of bet between two of my friends, what a pain, I'd rather go to the dentist and have a root canal made.
I did, but it didn't help since it wasn't funny eitherOriginally posted by Ned Flanders
From dusk til dawn is your classic b movie. You can't expect it to be good. Put together a lame plot, with moderate acting, lots of violence, some critters, a couple of sexy broads and voila, a cult film has been made. If you take the approach that's it's actually a comedy, it becomes more viewable.
It became supposedly intellectual? Are you kidding me? What in that movie could possible be interpreted as intellectual or philosophical? That there might be reality behind the reality we experience and with our senses? That issue has only been discussed for the last 2500 years...posted by Sleep
@CE, Dottie & fable The matrix is nonesense, but it is vaguely entertaining (well i thought so) the problem is that the film soon became supposedly intellectual. So one expects it to form some kind of philisophical backbone, or at least have believable characters and an interesting plot, none of which is supplies.
I could't possibly say it betterposted by Fable
And you're right. It's horrible. It's the visual equivalent of very bad romance novels, complete with all the cliches that implies: The pseudo-serious/realistic background, which is so much nonsense. The stinking rich, incredibly handsome bad boy. The apparently unsophisticated hooker, who actually has a heart of gold, great morals, and the ability to learn fast. (Sure, plenty of hookers are actually just diamonds in the rough with wonderful, supportive personalities, looking for men to save.)
