I dont understand why they left their hostages.. I mean where did they go ?. Home & came back ?.. Micheal Pitt & Brady were so cute together. They had really good chemistry , They should have their own Tv show
The idea is that the movie was a sort of social commentary of the horror and thriller genre. Where the audience loves blood, guts, and violence as long as the story predictably takes them where they want it to go. The movie kept taking it away from the viewer. And audiences loved the violence and brutal nature of the movie, until there was no payoff. Then audiences were like, 'what was the point of all of it then?' Which was the point of the movie. Why does a movie have to be brutal and violent to be entertaining, or tell a good story? I thought it was kind of interesting in an artistic kind of way.
They said before that in order for it to be a bet they had to be something to risk for them. So, they gave them that amount of time for them to get away so that it at least gave them some chance. It’s almost more cruel because they had that small bit of hope before it was quickly taken away.
It was almost a comedy with how wimpy the hisband is..He literally at the end ,after his son is killed ,sits in a chair and lets his wife pull him and he is dead weight.He doesnt use his hands or his other leg to help her drag his lazy coward ass ,its insane!!
@@somerking7040 Try running or fighting on a broken leg while your opponent is armed. Good luck. The husband was made to make you think that you would do more than him. News flash, you wouldn't, and if you were stupid enough to do anything, you would die trying. Home invasions happen all the time, and they end up just like how this movie portrayed it. A child, a restrained housewife and a beaten man with a broken leg vs two young, armed and experienced serial killers. I love how the movie did its best to ensure a believable outcome.
@@theycallmedoorway9913 yeah but thats the thing with those sick fcks. They dont want to just kill, the journey is what gets them off. Trying to run away gets you shot, but also "ends" their game. Better to die than to just sit through this otherwise inevitable torture.
For those who don't know : These scenes are taken of the movie "Funny games US" wich is a 2007 remake ( or copy should I rather say ) of the 1997 Austrian film "Funny games". Both have the same director, Michael Haneke.
What’s interesting is that Siobhan Fallon Hogan (the actress at the very end) also played someone who let a murderer into her house in The House that Jack Built
When the shot goes off and he just continues making a sandwich so non chalent It really puts the head on a spin for a second until you realize the worst possible outcome Hanake aced this film and glad he made it for also the american audience
@@theycallmedoorway9913 original had better actors, felt more real in my opinion, remake used the comedy field a little too much, takes away the frightening moments from the audience
