mencius_89's rating
I find Will Ferrels movies have no middle ground. Anchor Man, Zoolander, Old School, Superstar, Stranger than Fiction, Blades of glory. All bloody hilarious... Bewitched, Semi-pro, Step Brothers, kicking and screaming and now Land of the lost all god awful. I realise its scripts, directors etc. etc... but it doesn't make it any less frustrating..

This film was brilliant, as dark and brutal as they get. The plot on the surface may be fantastical at parts but regardless of its extremities i found realistic depth in the characters very individual stories, showing the harsh truth behind every day lives.
I think the films current rating is an absolute insult. If you like dark, interesting films you will love this. The people rating this thought they were watching a teen flick obviously. But if your the kind of person who would like this film, you don't pay attention to critic ratings anyway. Im glad i watched this film alone as i wouldn't feel comfortable watching it with someone else. I suggest others do the same.
