The Fallen Dave Polls #11 of 10

Did your opinion of the film change when you saw it a second time? Assuming you did see it a second time!

[KoshNaranek]

I've seen it three times so far and I've enjoyed it more following the subsequent viewings. It really is quite an assault on the senses the first time around and there's a lot to take in. Knowing the story going in meant I could relax and notice wee things I didn't notice before. There's quite a bit of fast talking so I was able to pick out more of the jokes. Mind you, that may have been because I had a inner ear blockage the first time I saw it and had them syringed before the second time!

Nope, not really.

I went to see it for a second time on Saturday. I actually enjoyed it a lot more. The whole film felt a bit more cohesive, but that's likely because I knew what was coming and my mind could fill in the blanks better.

It was an early afternoon showing, so a lot of kids in there. Shortly after the wrecking balls joke, the 9 year old on the row behind me asked his mum what a scrotum was.

Which, amusingly, isn't listed as a discussion topic on the ridiculously comprehensive kids-in-mind website.

Hah hah classic. That would have been funnier than anything in the film.

The mum was quite sharp as her reply was along the lines of "shush now, I need to see what's happening so I know which ones to get for your birthday."

But then, he'd probably ask again, right after he'd blown out all the candles and the grandparents were there watching.

I just hope that touching moment ends up on You've Been Framed.
