Karry Best movie of this year hands down!

Supelice Dreadfully Boring

Holstra Boring, long, and too preachy.

Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

Madbyggeren This hour and a half documentary snuck its way into my "Touch of Tarantino" DVD box-set, and, being a fan of behind-the-scenes and general DVD-obesity, I just finished watching it - being at home and a little ill on a Friday evening anyway.There's plenty of minutes between the golden lines, but that said, this feature is a nice experience and a good substitute for your Hard Copy pulp, or how you guys keep yourself up to date with the off-stage life of actors and film-makers and -crew.We get all the way around the film crew, from the best boys and the catering guy to lots of comradely fooling around between especially Mr. Tarantino and Mr. Clooney.The documentary has a few highlights, e.g. when Juliette Lewis talks about acting, describing it as (quoted freely from memory) "well, to me acting is just lying. All that getting-to-know the character I don't understand, I just lie". Or one of the crew guys, asked about why he does, what he does: "- So I don't have to get a real job. And I get to work with other people, who don't have real jobs either".To sum it up, I can't think of why I would recommend watching this documentary from a movie-critic POW - but if you want to recognize that movies are bottom line made by geeks (in the most positive sense, by the way) and, yes, 'normal people' - of if you have reached the end of your DVD-shelf and Blockbuster is closed, hey, flip it in.

stamper I really wasn't too interested in watching this one, thinking it would be another typical 'Making of…', with the only exception that it had feature-length. There were just two reasons I decided to give it a try. The first one is me being a bit of a Tarantino/Rodriguez fan who felt that From Dusk till Dawn was a brilliant picture. The second one was, that it was on TV and it didn't cost money and I could just turn it off when it became annoying without feeling scr..ed because I payed money to watch it.In the end I was pleasantly surprised, because this was nothing like a 'Making of…' in which everybody is like: 'I loved working with…' and 'The story was just so great!' & '…is the best director I've ever worked with.'! I actually despise any 'Making of...' for being like that, because it is just propaganda to get people to see the film. Full tilt boogie on the other hand gives people a behind the scenes look at what various employees do on a film set and what can (and will) go wrong whilst making a picture, which is what made the film watchable. But it isn't without flaws. Despite being pretty interesting, I felt that I could have used a bit more background info about the whole 'union-thing', so I could understand it all. I guess if you're into Tarantino/Rodriguez, or if you want to know what it's like to work on a movie set and are interested in the basic 'who-does-what', this film is for you. Otherwise you haven't missed a thing.6,5 out of 10 (with a 6 given upon voting, since this is basically for 'freaks' and fans only)

teejay17 Yeah, this film was pretty interesting as far as letting me see what really goes on behind the scenes while making a film. I guess the biggest reason why I liked it was because it wasn't so stuffy and polished--it gave the human side to film making. Tarantino and Clooney aren't represented as gods, but merely guys making a movie. I think that is very important and a big problem with films today--the human aspect of it is gone. But this documentary of the making of Dust till Dawn shows just the human side. And it isn't centered on the main characters, but everyone, right down to the caterers. Also shows the complex side of film making, including the unions. All together a pretty good film.

Wild_Bob I came across this documentary when I rented the DVD at Blockbuster. At first, I thought this would be another one of those HBO Special BS that companies usually slap on their DVDs, but from the beginning when Clooney and Tarantino were walking about the set along to the BeeGees, I was hooked. This wasn't the polished crap that I was used to, this was a full-out documentary that explored every aspect of film making. Instead of just interviewing the actors and the director, FTB interviewed the ADs, the grips, the runners, catering, the assistants, and many, many electricians. Instead of exploring about what went right in the movies, this explored what went wrong, and how the filmmakers fixed these problems. The budget problems, issues with the set design, "union troubles," all of it was there. This was the real stuff. Sure it might be a lil' long, but it was refreshing to see what REALLY goes on behind the scenes.
