Val Kilmer's not only has a cancerous tumor in his throat, he won't take regular cancer treatments. I don't know the basis of the treatment he is taking. If he's in the movie because Scorsese and/or the director had him in because he needed the work, I can sympathize. Too bad it was in this badly bungled film. I'm going to just read the book.

I like that a crazy man asked Val Kilmer to come to a secluded cabin all by himself and he was like "yeah, this is a good idea."

The poster tagline should have been "Mr. Police, I left a flaming bag of poo on your doorstep and a bottle of scotch. It's the best I could do" with a snowman facepalming.

Watching Sarah's ceaseless smile for the first 30 seconds tells me that this is gunna be a good one.

HOLY SHIT!...Is Brad wearing a Double Toasted t-shirt?!?!? To see two of my favorite YT personalities merge like this makes my day!

I'd like to congratulate the trailer makers for this film - they did a pretty good job selling it, before word of its true quality got out.

I saw this after Blade Runner 2049. I got drunk between the two. Movie experience of the year.

Mathew Buck's video on the movie got me hyped for Brad's take. Both do a great job tearing this kind of messes apart.

This review should have been nothing but wildly entertaining, but sadly the revelation about Val Kilmer (hinted at in the review, confirmed in the comments & the inevitable post review Google search) kinda cast a pall over the whole thing for me. I didn't know beforehand and it's pretty evident Brad & Sara hadn't heard either, but it was clear that after seeing him in the movie they at least suspected even if they weren't willing to come right out & say it right then live.

SamKing imo, attaching a name to a film other than the actors' or directors' is just false advertisement. "From the filmaker who brought you Pulp Fiction and Reservoir Dogs comes... _Iron Monkey!_ " Now I liked Iron Monkey very much, but the taglines in the vein of the above quote is just BS. Just because Tarantino got the film brought to US markets doesn't mean he had f%$k all to do with its content. Imo, let a film stand on who actually made it(if the actual quality of the film just can't be enough) _not_ who provided/raised the money for it or what have you. Sorry, rant over ;)

Murder on the Orient Express looks interesting, but it really annoyed me is how they used that Imagine Dragons song in the trailer. PLEASE, Hollywood don't use top 40s pop songs for period pieces, for the love of god, it just doesn't fit.

Hairy Hole.

The movie is like watching a two hour edit of a four and a half hour miniseries but the editors don't know how to make the shorter version work so large sections it make absolutely no sense. The various plots hardly overlap unless absolutely necessary. There have A LOT of bad movies this year but this and Book Of Henry will be remembered by film history as great examples of "who the hell had final cut over this" type disasters.

Brad: "I'm trying to hit 'end'." Sarah: *gets possessed*

Doesn't help the editor that they didn't have much to work with, considering how large chunks of the script didn't get filmed

Dammit! Sarah is just too adorable. Oh! And Brad's there, too!

Windows between rooms are not a Norway thing, it's just weird. And I kinda want to see this movie now. First parts of it was shot in my neighborhood in Oslo, second it's become a meme machine.

The best review I have heard of this is when you try to make a Fincher movie and you don't hit the mark, you miss badly.

8:19 - That is an impressive bass-baritone vocal!

You love Christie too? Awesome! Can't wait to see that picture!

I remember part of this review mentioning the ending of the movie, where one of the final shots was of this random room full of chairs or something like that, but I didn't notice it this time... Does anyone know if I'm thinking of a different review?

"If you want to know what this movie is about...I don't know." Oh that's always a good sign.

Random question, have you ever seen the movie called A Ghost Story with Casey Affleck and Rooney Mara? Now that's a movie I'd like to hear your opinion on

So there was no "Walking in the Air" music playing during this movie? bah... missed opportunity. :P

Every time you mentioned val kilmer I thought of the episode of the fistshark marketing podcast where he drinks all the syrup on earth, starts sweating syrup, the the syrup encased people he walks past like the tree sap in jurrassic park.

I'll be looking for "Mesmerizing" on the box cover

3.37 So What Sarah’s saying is that it’s stylistically designed to be that way.

You know, given Val Kilmer's condition, I have ABSOLUTELY no idea why he is in this whatsoever. I mean this isn't like a Miguel Ferrer situation. Miguel Ferrer got throat cancer but actively decided "No, I want to see my career to the end" and they actually wrote his throat cancer INTO the plot of NCIS: Los Angeles. Because basically Miguel actively refused to take days off and said "Look, let's write it into the show. Let's not drag down the quality of the show by dubbing me or killing me off just because I've got cancer" so they wrote it into the show that his character got throat cancer. And they wrote it in such a way that his character's story is technically still going despite Miguel having passed away. Really fantastic show, but that's off-topic. Val Kilmer on the other hand? He doesn't give a fuck about this movie. Look up stuff about him talking about the movie and you can tell he was disinterested in this movie. So why, in precious fuck, is he in this movie? You're not exactly broke, Mr Kilmer. Take a fucking day off, dude. Well I hope Val Kilmer recovers from his cancer nevertheless. But still....Why?

What a coincidence, I just watched the review for Color of Night with him and Allison on Movie Nights.

Val Kilmer reportedly has or had throat cancer thats why he doesn't have a good voice right now.

This was my "bad movie day" movie this year..... I looked the book series up after watching this movie, and this is the *7th book* in an European detective series. None of the previous books were adapted. And it felt like it.

Awww I was looking forward to this

I was under the impression that the movie would be a standard slasher film about a killer snowman.

I'm excited for Murder on the Orient Express, I hope that it will do well so they'll make more movies based off her other stories.

While watching this movie, I had to read a detailed plot synopsis on Wikipedia in order to follow what was happening.

Yay sarah!!!

So now I have to ask, Brad, what do you think of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein? It's October, it's horror movie season, and you express a fondness for Branagh, makes me wonder how you like his treatment of my favorite novel.

Indoor windows is not a typical thing in Norway.

Kilmer disclosed that he had "a healing of cancer," and his tongue "was still swollen although healing all the time

Will you help me hide a body? C'mon we can't delay No one can see him on the floor, Get him out the door, Before he can decay! I thought you were my buddy We won't get caught Just help me and don't ask why Will you help me hide a body? It didn't have to be in one piece. (Go away, Anna) Oh dear, why... Won't you help me hide a body? This one's been knocked out since last Fall I think his company is overdue It's about time we threw His body down the well (Stay down there, Joan.) It gets a little lonely Digging up all these graves Out in the night by myself... (Ugh, we're already running out of space in these caves!)

This movie was adapted from part 7 of an 8 part book series.

I think the reason Val Kilmer's voice is dubbed is because he has throat cancer, I read an article about it recently.
