- In celebration of the new film The Gone Girl on the Train With A Dragon Tattoo... here are all the sins we found in Gone Girl, the most recent "Girl-based" mystery-thriller we could find to tie into The Girl on the Train.
Next week: Two horror sequels, one newer and one slightly less new.
Remember, no movie is without sin! Which movie's sins should we expose next?!

Jeremy's book now available: theablesbook.com Merch: teespring.com/...
8:49 the reason she scratches her leg is due to the fact that she is no longer living the “cool girl” image for her husband. She is scratching her leg because she has stopped shaving.
At first I also was really put off by how unnatural the dialogue is in the flashbacks, but then I realized that it is actually really smart. You see, all of those flashbacks are presented as coming from the diary, which we find out was completely made up by the wife. She was writing a version of the past that she knew other people would read, so of course she made herself as witty and "one liner" full as possible.
This isn't some "fan theory," if you take a second to think about it you'll see the workings behind it. It is just a shame that it is so subtle, because it leads to people like this reviewer (who I'm sure is really smart) calling out bad dialogue.
TheJordanChronicles yes someone gets it
It says in the movie that the early days stuff was real and she made up the abuse and stuff. So she probably actually said that stuff in the past
jamesk479 Why so pissy, bro? These videos are satire.
@@shelbybutler6045 In the book, the early day stuff was based off real events, but written to make them likeable and the 'perfect love story'. The abuse itself was all made up.
@@RinTrickandTreat well no, Nick really was a gold digger and he really did cheat on her and he really did expect her to be his Cool Girl with no personality of her own
"Also, Amy follows a man she just met down an alley without any question..."
This is actually a big clue, and something Amy herself probably didn't consider as revealing when she wrote about it in her diary. She has no fear. The so-called "warrior gene" is often associated with psychopaths / sociopaths (to use the common vernacular). It's one of the reasons you'll actually find a lot of people who can fit the bill for a clinical diagnosis (who were socialized well enough while growing up that they don't hurt people) in professions like medicine, firefighting, and other dangerous fields.
I'm sure this is a valid point but I saw the words "warrior gene" gave me Riverdale flashbacks
The warrior gene has little to do with a diagnosis of any sort. 2 people have been let off murder because too much weight is put into the “warrior gene”. It’s not really how genes work.
Psychopath and sociopath are two different terms that describe two differently disordered personalities. They are not interchangeable.
yo cineama sins ...... next employee , right here ,
crock of bull
she is a terrible detective. putting sticky notes on shit is almost akin to drawing a chalk outline of a body, contaminating the crimescene like nobodys business.
seriously, what academy did she go to?
Ethan Miller the promethius school of running away from things
Hard-on University apparently.
not to mention she is a really dumb detective too
When they test urine for human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG aka "pregnancy hormone"), they can only do a qualitative HCG test. That means, we can only know THAT someone is pregnant, not how many weeks they're pregnant. A qualitative blood test is the only way to know how far along a woman is in her pregnancy.
I only know this from a decade in the medical field and 3 science degrees. Should a film critic know this and not get it wrong in their list of everything incorrect in a movie? No, but that doesn't stop me from sinning it anyway.
I liked this movie, but OMG, just because a cat has his own room doesn't mean he can't chill in other rooms.
The Cat is like : Oh shit, I got room back there , Wtf Iam Doing here
right?? it's a fucking cat bro 😭
ah but for the sake of the movie ....
Seriously I my cat had its own room. Spare room. And my small dog would annoy my cat so she had her own room with a gate
@@Bonbonbon739 how fucking rich are you
The movie stayed pretty loyal to the book, but it doesn't have any of the "oh shit" moments the book has. The ending is so well done in the book. They both mindfuck eachother and realize that they know eachother to the bone. Sure, they don't love eachother, but they'll never be satisfied with someone else. The movie has the same narrative, but it doesn't show the moments they truly realize theyll never be able to be apart. Another thing, the movie paints nick so much better than the book. When reading the book I actually thought they were equally bad for a moment. It shows all the buildup to him choking her, it shows so well all the hate that he has for nearly every woman in his life. The book is also way better at filling those plot holes, it doesn't give some bullshit excuse about how Amy learned to do this only from crime books, it shows how fucked up she was since she was a child.
So...the book is better?
Yes, the book is much better. I was so disappointed with the film because the author of the book wrote the screenplay and I thought it was going to be more tense and disturbing than the film.
I totally agree. This is the perfect example of "first read the book and THEN watch the movie inspired"
Totally agree. When you read the book is when everything in the movie makes sense.
wait what happened in her childhood?? damn i really should read the book
It makes me so angry how dumb the detectives are and how lucky she is in this goddamn movie
It's not her fault. The writers wrote her character to be like that. If anything, you should be mad at the writers.
Have you seen the coverage on some of the real "Pretty White Woman is Missing" stories (there's a reason they used a 'Nancy Grace' stand in) combine that with even the pre-#meToo levels of 'Never doubt the Victim'
I made the mistake of suggesting 'Due Process'/Innocent Until proven Guilty in a Message board discussing Cosby when his Accuser/Victim Count was still under 10... the Number of people who accused me of being a Rapist was insane...
Pretty white girl goes missing, media gets involved. They get all sorts of pressure to to chase certain leads & deny others. They were pressured the whole time to convict Nick from the media & their bosses.
y'all better read the book. this woman is ahead of our time. she's a psycho bitch.
@@TJ52359 It is Insane how the right of Due Process always seems to be forgotten and the public rather resort to the mentality of going on a witch hunt or go after the victim instead.
You should read Actual Innocence: short stories of people exonerated from crimes they never committed after years in prison and/or on death row. Most were black men charged with rape after being put through a witch hunt and were finally saved by DNA testing proving their innocence. If those people read that book, they probably wouldn't have jumped down your throat and would appreciate the concept of "Innocent Until Proven Guilty".
The biggest plot hole in this film is that at the end of the film she decides to change her story and say NPH kidnapped her... but the thing is, since that wasn't her original plan, she literally had no idea what NPH was doing the day she staged it... for all she knows he was in a meeting at work that day with several people able to give him an alibi, but of course, the cops don't follow up with any proper procedures in this movie and just believer her once again... and let her go
Its probably one of the hundreds i could think of of the top of my head
The thing is, the whole investigation was about her dissapearance / murder. Once she returned, there was nothing to investigate anymore.
But there should be a new investigation to NPH's murder. Even if it still ends with her getting "self defense"
@@leonpaelinck And there's a scene where the FBI question her. Hell, when Nick tells his Lawyer and the initial detective the truth about Amy, the Laywer bails and the detective tells him it's an FBI matter. There was an investigation, but the movie was pretty much over so it got very little screentime
It's not a plothole, but a critique of the media
And the recording of her getting abused in cctv after desi has left in the car also where was she in the first 7 days of her kidnapping cuz she was not in cctv is a plot hole
At the end of the day, this was a brilliant movie
No
Yes.
Lets agree to disagree.
I give it 8/10
No movie is going to get universal praise by everyone. This one just happened to receive it from the majority and that praise is well deserved in my opinion. Rosamund Pike should’ve snagged that Oscar.
Great movie < Worst and most unsatisfying ending ever in history of movies
And they skipped the most relatable part of the movie and book. The whole "cool girl" speech was the best part. It was the only part that rang true.
That whole "speech" lasted like 10 seconds, it could hardly save this movie
Leo B it didn’t need saving, it’s brilliant
@@aaaadit5155 if you don't care about a billion plotholes and awful characters, then yeah I'm sure it's brilliant
Leo B awful characters? Amy is one of the best female characters in Hollywood. Also the score, the filmography, the dark and gloomy tone of the film stands out. And Pike’s acting is fantastic
@@aaaadit5155 There was nothing human about her, the character seemed completely fake. The plot made very little sense. If a movie fails to make you feel something for the characters except frustration and disbelief it has failed in my book. As for the soundtrack it was Trent Reznors least inspired Fincher work yet, but you can hardly blame him. Going from a masterpiece like Social Network to some trashy mediocre crime story with huge plot holes must be awful. I have no idea why Fincher chose to work on this story, it was a trainwreck from beginning to end.
I also noticed the “scratching her leg” in the library thing. I learned that you never show something on screen in a closeup like that unless it’s for a reason. In fact, I learned that David Fincher relies on this very strongly, that if he shows something, there is a DEFINITE reason. But that leg scratch is never explained, and it was a tight closeup shot. Weird.
you really didnt understand why she did that? it wasnt explained dirrectly but i think everyone knows the reason if they watched the film
@@novabiljatrepavicaalibolja6059 really?
I watched the film today and I can't think of anything, except her being nervous. Help me?
@@paulinezugzwang1773 I thought it was probably to show that she stopped shaving her legs (as part of the "not being the cool girl anymore" trope, she's purposely gaining weight, dying her hair badly, wearing clothes that don't fit peoperly etc). Her legs are itchy because the hair is growing back...
@@minavivi2026 you beat me to it.
vivi 000 ooh! Thank you!
I don't think it's a sin that the cat was still in the yard at the time Nick arrives home. Cats are lazy. And they're assholes, too. I love cats.
Only lazy assholes think cats are lazy assholes (but never dogs??) just for being cats. Cats are so sweet, even to people who don't deserve them.
Interesting fact. Cats that go missing are often likely hiding within a small distance from the house or building they got out of. They're not as likely to wander miles away like a dog might. So remember to look in areas nearby and knock on doors put up signs near the house. Tips for anyone who experiences a "Gone Cat" situation.
And also, cats are just like humans. So yes, cats are assholes.
@@jostockton. I think your cat is just very different to ours. Mine is a lazy asshole. Definitely wouldn’t use “sweet” to describe him. I still love him though.
It pisses me off that the doctors and Cops suck at their job in this movie. It’s quite clear that she isn’t harmed, didn’t “bleed out” and that she was never pregnant.
The point is that they are afraid to question her story because she is the "victim" in a very high profile case. If they question her, they get called all sorts of names in the media. Cancel culture has been looming for years. It's not just a 2020 phenomenon.
@@Username-eq7fh The movie does have the scene with Detective Boney saying it didn't matter if Nick knew the blood type of his wife so there's that.
@@Karamarika The fact there was the Archor Woman willing to call Nick the bad guy would solidify that.
Damn son you’re stupid. Clearly don’t understand the whole point of this movie
But what does that matter? That was all to frame Nick, but once she returned he's obviously off the hook so that evidence does not matter anymore.
what does matter is that she can never get away with killing NPH.
The sins about the overly stylized patter between Nick and Amy are kind of invalid when you stop to think about the fact that the majority of that information comes from Amy's diary, where she is purposely crafting a false narrative. The stylization is a clue. However, kudos to you guys for a "Thin Man" reference.
bruh this makes soo much sense
The early days in the diary are true though.
@@ShittyShittyGameGang That's what made the diary a pretty good evidence to incriminate Nick. It gives enough validation for the lies mixed in there to be presented as 'true'. Amy said this herself I think.
BRUHHH OMGGGG T
No, the beginning was true. And she clearly wasn't lying about stuff like Nick gold digging her or generally being a selfish, lazy spouse.
Regarding the fact that they get in the shower in the afternoon, and when they get out it’s dark: in the book they stand in the shower for an hour until the water goes cold as she explains to him everything about how she pulled the whole thing off. She wanted to tell him everything in the shower in case he had bugged the house. When they get out of the shower she announces it’s bed time. I think this was meant to illustrate how long it took her to tel him the whole story.
Everything wrong with Bee Movie is bound to come soon.
how's Wakanda?
Long live t'challa
RIP T'Chaka
there is nothing wrong, fool
Why is this movie so talked about?
Am I the only one bothered by the fact that the cat has its own bedroom?
Goddamn rich people are weird.
The cat has it's own room while his father is in a nursing home.
To be fair, he loves that cat and hates his father.
I never even had my own bedroom until I was 14 😂
Haha, they aren't even rich. They're folks with large credit card debts acting rich.
The mistress lip wipe off comes because they are in the snow, the snow is like the sugar
I think the fact that everyone believes her straight away emphasises the whole idea of perception in this film. She is the perfect 'victim' and everyone believes her because it's easy. Everyone in this film acts the way the think other people will respond well to, such as nick and Amy changing themselves to be who they think the other wants to have a relationship with, and how nick acts differently on camera making his speech to Amy because he wants people to be on his side. Amy comes back and acts like a victim, and everyone treats her like she is one without batting an eye, because everyone perceives her to be one.
And the ones who don't believe her are too scared to challenge her, bc they know she's a psycho killer and that everyone else thinks she's just a poor little victim. Yes, it's ALL about perception.
It seems like the entire thesis statement is "women can lie and anyone will believe them" which is a super misogynistic viewpoint.
Maybe the book approaches it with more nuance, but the movie felt to me like those sexist boomer stand-up comedians saying "my wife is such a bitch".
Whole thing made me cringe.
I’m sorry the word you’re looking for is misandry
How come CinemaSins isn't verified?
+1 sin for CZcams verification?
not advertiser friendly ;)
Maybe this is the wrong cinema sins somehow!?
K1NGF1SHER What if we've been watching the wrong cinemasins all this time?!
Rhianna Redmond becase it is*sin*
I'm just gonna say it: the screenwriters/Fincher did not find a clever way of showing the inner monologue of Nick/Amy, which was done very well in the book and made their whole situation a lot more believable.
Dylan Wills I liked the cool girl monologue I think it was better in the movie than the book
The screen writer is Gillian Flynn, who also wrote the book
@@chaseghannam201 I think Gillian hasn't done that good of a job to write that screenplay. The book is amazing but this film is full of plot holes.
@@enriquesanchez9016 could you list me a few of them. I'm doing an assignment on the film and need a little help ahah?
@@savirahye the whole movie plot is basically a trainwreck, you would struggle to find anything that makes sense in it
My thing was - ending image, rubbing her hair, I was immediately suspicious about the scaring that would have taken place if her story were true - that she was attacked in their house by NPH, clubbed over the head, losing all that blood, yet no one asked to see how her head healed up? Or asked for medical records that regarded sewing up someone's scalp?
AH...Sin 92. THANK YOU!!! hahahaha
The wood shed (Margo never going in there or seeing anyone lurking around it, the credit card statements) and Desi's intense security camera system which would have captured her willingly in his house dozens of times totally ruined even the slightest believability for me.
That’s believable tho because if I was with someone dangerous, I would try to cooperate and make them think that I’m happy to be with them whilst I still tried to figure out his to assess the situation, so it would make sense that she would pretend to do that
Not to defend anyone here, but she would have deleted all evidence of her in the house, except the shots she staged, and these cops would most likely just chalk it down to Desi having erased the footage to hide evidence of her being there, except he missed a spot
@@heybatterbatterHe missed because he didn't have time to erase. He was killed same night.
"Amy we found your diary containing some allegations"
Amy: "It was orange I saw he vented"
I get it haha
Very sus.
If I ever decide to fake my death and/or murder someone, I'm going to run my plan past CinemaSins.
Bruh
people who dont have notifications on but just spend all day on youtube so catch everything early squad assemble
here I am!
Yeah, LOL.
reporting as ordered!

I think that by the end of the movie, it becomes a satire of the media and police.
The writer becomes desperate at the end trying to tie up this mess of a story
akshay satish “women aren’t smart writers” ignorance at its finest.
Oh yeah. You can definitely find the scene with the Newswoman going on about Nick being a bad guy because of a photo he was in.
he should make a separate channel and make "everything RIGHT with" and call it CinemaWins.
there is a channel called that
Yeah where were you for the past year? -_- lol
Spit Clap Boom thanks captain obvious lol
Romeo Lopez you're welcome *tips fedora*
Hahahaha.
The only problem I had with this movie was Ben Affleck's stiff play... but I must say... his dong took me by surprise.
That's likely why Fincher cast him - you're meant to doubt Nick's innocence due to his lack of conviction (so to speak). Affleck was perfect for this role in that sense.
Mika Soze That's one way of looking at this. Interesting, thanks for sharing!
No problem! It was my boyfriend who first suggested that. I thought it was a very good point as well ^_^
I knew Nick didnt killed his wife from the start. The film it's not exactly subtle about trying to frame him from the initial narration. Or his wife's narration. Or how everything happens in the first five minutes. That and the fact it's a David Fincher movie. My guess is the guy's already tired of making movies of people having double lives.
Other than that, I actually like the situation Nick was in, like someone who actually has no idea how to react to the disappearance of a wife that he doesnt love anymore.
Nick is like that in the book. He doesn't really act appropriately to situations.
surprised you didn't knock off at least a couple of sins for Rosamund's phenomenal acting in the second act but hey hey~
She didnt even give a good performance. At all.
It's supposed to be satirical, it was perfect
I couldn't picture no one else acting this part she was excellent... She was robbed her award
@@yutaniskynet2653 you don’t know anything about acting clearly.
sin 62 is flawed. sugar replaced by snow
13:11 Sin number 93 is so fucking true. Like seriously, how did they miss the fact that she didn't have any injuries? That alone would've been the end of Amy.
Well apparently Cinema Sins would know how to stage a murder... justsayin'
rand0m508 this guys voice is just too annoying though this film is overrated its only entertainment & even todays documentaries are so cynical so i guess this is the new style of review....just smart ass speed talking monotone sarcasm thats way too comedy guy voicecustiepoo for 13 whole minutes. Its not funny enough.the cops are so bad the story so far fetched but its fun enough... Some reviews on IMDB make funny great criticisms without ".... are you putting panties in That MANY offices? Gosh". Im done. This is the THE EASIEST FILM TO PAN too...its a man hating movie too. Bad! She is supervillian evil...spoiled brat entitled. I enjoyed hating them.😊
Marrianne Swango I have no idea what you’re trying to argue here.
recognizing where some one else erred is a far cry from being able to accomplish it yourself
Well... They _would_ know how not to stage one.
Yyyyeeeaaahhh but they know how to murder movies tho
Why not just divorce him and take all his money this is so extra
MTE! Again, she's a 'crazy b****.
she doesn't want money she wants his life
movies like this are never made about normal people 😂 trust me, many times I sat there thinking that most people usually just got a divorce
you mean, her money, remember?
Because then there would be no fucking story.
Also, he didn't have money for her to take. SHE had the money, until her parents had to borrow nearly all of it because their publishing business went under.
This guy should get hired to watch movies before they get release so the creators can perfect them
He would erase the whole movie, no movies would be even released
The fact that you think Jeremy is 100% serious and that *everything* he states as true is scary. A lot of the things he sins are not even wrong and HE should be sinned for not knowing about them. He sinned a defibrillator for being a real defibrillator in doctor strange, which actually does stop beeping once someone is dead. The sins are just for fun and entertainment, so chill your tits my dude.
Raven M he said that as a joke and you just wrote a whole paragraph about it hahahahaha
Nope. There's already a nasty trend toward making sequels try to retcon fandom gripes. Or people guess a plot twist early and the writers have to change it, but it's not as good because its not what's been foreshadowed and planned. Look up Shaun's videos about Cinema Sins. Even as individuals, watching too many of these jokey-joke review vids makes us watch movies with an eye to finding things to call sins, rather than trying to enjoy the story.
@@Gloomyraindrop That's not working anymore buddy
What bothers me the most is the wood shed:
1) She litteally left a note there, basically proving she set that shed up.
2) Why would nick buy so much stuff and never even open it, just stacking it in a shed?
3) Nick can literally return everything and clear his debt.
2 is explained in the movie when the police open the Wood shed
"So, now that the wife is gone you can finally play with your toys" or something like that. Still a bit weird, but it *is* addressed
1) Yes now the Nick knows she set it up, but not the cops. For all they know it can't be used as an evidence since he could've placed it there too
2) Detective thought he was waiting for all outrage about his wife missing to cool down so he could open it later and enjoy it in peace
3) Police is following him at all times. If he returned it they would know he had it and that's evidence against him
there's nothing wrong with that film.
John Hitman
Not with 'Everything About Movies Are Fucking Wrong'.
John Hitman im sorry to say but not really, but no movie is without a sin
Exactly!
Ending was total shit. Doesn't mean the movie wasn't fun.
I'll be honest, I thought the movie was pretty, good... right up until the last act,, and that just ruined everything. It's like how absolutely no one can bring up Mass Effect 3 without bringing up the ending.
you can willingly enter someone's home and still not consent to sex. rape can happen even in a home you welcomed yourself into.
Definitely agree, however in the movie she said she was kidnapped, brought to his house and tied up, so video of her willingly entering the home would contradict everything she told the police.
And no cop checked what Desi was doing the day of the kidnapping, either on his cameras or at his work.
Also he would have been in the house alone for days while she was in the cabin next to the woman who robbed her.
And Nick would have turned up on the cameras during that time too.
So Amy is basically Heath Ledger's Joker? Her scheme only works because the plot bends over backwards, inside out and to Mars for it to work.
I think Amy has more plot holes in her plan than The Joker. The Joker has a good motive but Amy is just plain crazy.
I just saw this movie last night, I expected it to be good because of David Fincher but it's really really bad. She could have just get pregnant right away after he asked for divorce women do it all the time in order to keep a man.
@@jelena7440 I think you forgot the part where Nick told her sister that Nick wanted kids, Amy didn't and she told her not to talk about it to anyone. So, she didn't want kids.
And whether she did want kids (recently before murder) is also questionable as those parts were from her diary.
jelena damjanovic I think it's because she didn't want to be with him, neither did she want to divorce him cause that would mean setting him free to be with his mistress she wanted revenge she wanted to kill him like he killed her (or so she believed he did).
@@jelena7440 ju. .45
Everything Wrong with Whiplash
And do some Whiplash outtakes. I think you'll have a goldmine with those
woah, there's nothing wrong with whiplash
Do you know why I just threw a chair at you?
StatelyTerror64 It's one of my favorite movies oat but I'd like to him sin it.
Please do whiplash and note the flaws in the Percusion
GodsSon987 movie was good
Might be my favorite film of 2014.
I'm sorry that this was the only movie you saw.
Gone Girl was great but 2014 was also a great year for films. I'd hesitate to say it made the top ten of my favorite films in 2014. Definitely all opinion based and very subjective though, I'm glad you enjoyed it that much!
I'd say it was top 5
grand Budapest hotel
birdman
gone girl
nightcrawler
whiplash in that order with inherent vice and interstellar also being fantastic but suffering from glaring flaws respectively
Gone Girl is probably #7 for me. I have Boyhood, Whiplash, Birdman, The Winter Soldier, Nightcrawler, and Interstellar ahead of it.
With Boyhood and Whiplash being my Top 2 of the year.
MR ROBOT1219 Grand Budapest Hotel and Nightcrawler were definitely my favorites. Completely agree with what you said about Interstellar, maybe I'd be able to enjoy it more if I didn't think about it as much.
1:59 killed me „Is she asking him this like a caveman? Oh wait that‘s his name“ 😂😂
Can I smell your computer chair?
Mr PoopyButtHole what
Yeah, that sticky note method of denoting evidence is not kosher. That's considered manipulation of the crime scene, any lawyer would eat her alive for that. Not to mention, the adhesive on the sticky notes could easily contaminate the evidence they are supposed to be denoting.
Seriously do everything wrong with Phantom Of the Opera (2004)
You mean that you think that there is anything wrong with a movie about a guy trying to date a 17-year old friend of his daughter, and because she chooses to hook up with someone her age he decides to commit a terrorist attack, and (spoiler) the movie ends with looking on her grave, while the killer/terrorist is still alive?
the people behind CinemaSins once again do a much better job at federal agent-ing than the federal agents in the movie.
andyradical
No. No they dont
At least the federal agents don't ruin a great movie
This is probably the first movie that I actually love that cinemasins punched a bunch of holes in and actually made it seem not as good. I honestly never even thought about how the kidnapping story makes the gallon of blood on the floor completely unexplainable
Welcome to lucidity ;)
What i hate about the film is that it uses his cheating as justification for what she did. She is not the victim in any way here.
There's no justification. She's literally a psychopath. As the book is written in first-person, half from her point of view, this story lacks Amy's condemnation because in her mind she's done nothing wrong.
I don't recall them trying to justify it. Granted some very misguided girls see Amy as some sort of hero but those girls are fucking crazy.
No, I don't think it tries to justify her in the slightest. I just hate the movie because it's dumb.
I think the film could've condemned her actions more. And literary origins aside i would've changed the ending at the very least.
Stephen LeGresley All of the main protagonists call her out in private and she murders one of the few sympathetic characters in the entire film. The audience understands she's a psychopath (though there are some people who idealize her the same way people idealize Tyler Durden); what more do you want?
The parents made her look like the golden child when she just wanted to be normal. That's part of why she does what she does.
Everything wrong with Goodfellas, Wolf of wall street, Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction, The Social Network, Se7en, Jackie Brown, Death Proof, Kill Bill 1 & 2, Taxi Driver, The Godfather, 12 angry men, zodiac, bird man, inglorious basterds,
You forgot "Debbie Does Dallas."
And Ratatouille.
son of the mask is just "too" good for this
There is nothing wrong with Pulp Fiction.
Vozz, are you the one that said that when I suggested Pulp Fiction a few months ago?
I read the Girl On The Train. It's really not that good. I saw the twist coming from a mile away. I haven't read Gone Girl, but I have watched the movie and I loved it.
I haven't, but judging from the trailer for the film it just looks like Rear Window on a train rather than from across a courtyard. Am I right?
Yeah basically, but I does have some interesting different things to it. I mean it's not a bad book or anything, just kinda bland and unimaginative. It's a fun read though.
thank you!
No problem man
I read Girl On the Train becuase I enjoyed Gone Girl and was hoping for something similar. But yeah I agree it's not as good. Not bad, just not as compelling.
actually, a lot of these things make sense. people talk about how things fall through the cracks and how that would never actually happen but it does often happen. as for the casino thing, having important meetings in loud, public places is a great idea to throw people off the scent.
@Rima Bahar if you'll remember, she made sure to keep up the act in front of the cameras. as for it being a stupid movie, everyone is entitled to their opinions :)
Man this film looks confusing af and I was able to follow Inception xD
Inception is not hard to follow.
It's actually pretty fun to follow and now that you know the twist, it would be easier to follow.
Sam Trott it's not confusing at all... great director, great movie
It's not that hard to follow, it's just stupid and ludicrously implausible.
Yeah but how because i was'nt
The one and only thing this movie taught me is that birches are crazy
Those birches sure are crazy, being trees and all that...

the scene where they first meet is her fantasy of a perfect meet cute. it's not what actually happened. most of what she wrote in her diary wasn't true. she dramatized it to ultimately incriminate her husband
When she's talking about writing the diary she says that the things she writes about the early portion of the relationship are true
JJJ HHH yeah, but it's not as if someone is able to remember the exact words of a conversation they had seven years ago. While the way they met is the same, what they said was probably altered to make it sound more endearing (as was Amy's intention).
You gotta read the book it explains everything it takes down a lot of sins
She doesn’t divorce him because she wants his life ruined
And the cops did check out desi and Hilary and Tommy and didn’t see them as suspects they saw nick as a suspect because he has trouble displaying emotions
It's not "Book Sins".
@@CyberChrist true but it’s still a great book
@@angieb976 Meh, I've watched Presumed Innocent and The Hands That Rocks The Cradle.
The reason we see Amy scratching her legs is because she's growing her leg hair out, which can be kind of itchy at first. It shows how Amy is not willing to be Nick's 'cool girl' anymore and she's refusing to meet those standards
Cinemasins, how about doin some 10th anniversary celebration for some 2006 like The Departed.
Great idea
Well, the problem with that is there isn't ANYTHING wrong with The Departed.
No movie is without sin.
No, apparently Deadpool is without sin because they're putting it off so much
+Hope the hobo I think they said that because Deadpool is basically a parody and is so self aware of itself, it would be kind of impossible to sin.
15:35 It's actually legally required for a man to maintain a marriage with a pregnant woman unless she indicates she wants otherwise. Aside from that, even if they got divorced, she could pummel him into the ground with demands for child support and alimony and the courts would totally back her. There is literally no way out for him except for one of them to die.

You must not have looked very hard. That was on the first page of results after a half dozen or so irrelevant (to the topic) "age of consent" laws.
You may not be able to finalize the divorce, but nobody can require the couple to continue to live together. And, then he could fight for custody, and maybe even win since she's so crazy.
You don't technically have to get divorced to split up. They wouldn't live in the same house, he would still help with baby bills but have nothing to do with her. After the baby is born, bam... divorce.
katymvt Technically no, but that whole "child support and alimony" bit is basically legal punishment for breaking off a marriage, and moreso for one involving a child. Granted, there are cases where men manage to win against the courts, and cases where women suffer unjustly, but both are extremely rare cases. Typically, a father trying to leave while remaining above the law will suffer greatly for doing so.
So, in light of the course of action resulting in punishment ordained by a court which must be adhered to under penalty of imprisonment, I think it's fair to argue that it can be considered illegal to get a divorce if you are going to have a child, if you're a man.
i dont see the black fathers anywhere. i guess they have all been jailed then... oh...
You missed one at when she invited the pregnant lady came over and she took the pregnancy test she didn’t drain the toilet properly +1 cinema sin
i thought she purposefully made the toilet not flush for her to collect the pregnant woman s pee
I am a massive Fincher fan and wanted to like this movie. BUT there was just so much wrong with it that I could buy it.
I could also buy it...
lmao
lol. My bad
"Couldn't buy it"
It isn't supposed to be realistic.
Clarence Dass nothing is wrong with this movie. Everything is wrong with our shitty society. Well at least with your murican feministic part of it.
Everything Wrong With Panic Room
YES!!
isn't that already done?
+niteshmurti
Panic Room isn't on their channel so either they did it and it was taken down or you're thinking of The Purge and/or The Room.
Dargonhuman yeah no clue.. i think i got confused
niteshmurti
No worries, I'm confused so often that I list it as my home state.
Idk but I feel like after watching this movie it's like Johnny Depp's case with AH
I watched this for the first time last night. I was kinda bored for the first while, then became intrigued, then was so disappointed at the ending. Was expecting much better.
I seriously could have swore you did this already, or am I thinking of honest trailers
Same here, I thought I was going crazy. But now that you mention it I guess I was thinking of Honest Trailers too.
it really bothered me when she met nph at a casino.... with a thousand cameras watching her not be kidnapped
I mean in an investigation of the kidnapping.
Desi wasn't though. Still a risk you'd think she would've avoided.
I just love how Ben Affleck - in EVERY scene - looks like he is perpetually surprised or baffled that he is in David Fincher movie.
I was shocked to find out that her being alive is considered a plot twist. I thought it was obvious from the beginning.
The only twist I saw came exactly in the middle of the movie when she narrates her plan and let's the audience know she's on the trail.
These usually aren't boring... The movie wasn't terrible, but I wouldn't watch it a 2nd time. This is hard material to make funny.
He even used this movie as an example of movies they couldn't sin.
fraya1022 Parodies, don't work either.
It is hard material alright.
This was quite an example of how CS started. Finding plot holes, illogical things and errors. And as much as I love Fincher, this movie is full of those and fully deserved the bashing imho
Michal Motyčka He's spot on, in that aspect. Some subjects just aren't funny. In Jeremy's defense, this doesn't happen 95% of the time, and he's done loads of these.
Since it's October, are we gonna get EWW Shaun of the Dead this month?
That movie is perfect!
They almost never do comedies, so I think they probably won't
there would be so much pissed off people, it would be so funny to see the comment section
The thing about that movie is all the things that could be sinned are why the movie is so great
SOTD premise is sinning movies (zombie ones), so that would be a pradox and most likely negate the universe.
the book was inspired by the laci peterson case (she was pregnant and killed by her husband scott) so some of these plotholes make sense if you're familiar with that story. but other than that i never noticed there were so many obvious mistakes in the film
Damn, Jeremy should've been a detective on the case in this movie.
Also: You leave "Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist" out of this, Jeremy!
actually, he was referencing old black and white movies with William Powell and Myrna loy
lol yea as soon as I heard him drop that line, I wondered how many others will associate it with the Michael Cera movie
No hospitals don't always clean you up. I waited in the waiting room and in the ER room covered in blood from a head injury. I had to ask for a blanket and wipes so I could cover and clean myself up. Needless to say when my doctor finally saw me she was pissed as to why no nurse had cleaned my head yet.
Taylor jay no they don't but they are suppose to depending on injury and severity
If the doctor was pissed, it means they're supposed to do as so, though. Which makes his sin still correct.
There's just the odd shit hospitals, maybe under staffed or just damn lazy. My nearest hospital to me is the worst lol
Sounds like they dropped the ball there for you sorry to hear that. But she had dozens of cops and hospital staff surrounding her getting samples and making sure she was alright it would have had to come up for someone that high profile.
The movie literally creates plot holes that didn’t even exist. The whole point isn’t that Amy is really lucky but that she has antisocial personality disorder, an extreme amount of patients and the intelligence to stage a crime where she
Knows pretty much exactly how everything will play out. She knows the people around her so well that her plan was quite foolproof if it had gone smoothly. It really pissed me off when they made things that actually made sense not make sense.
No a lot of things in this movie didn’t make sense. There is no way Amy wouldn’t have exposed as a fraud if the cops were half as good at doing their job as they should have.
@@lil_jon411 I literally just said that the movie had a lot of plot holes and things that didn’t make sense.
I was referring to the BOOK leaning on the fact that she was partially lucky but mostly knew how to manipulate her situation. Even the fact that the cops weren’t going to dig that deep to find her out. And how the movie created unneeded plot holes that made the situation all luck and no smarts on her part.
Now if you meant that the BOOK didn’t make sense, then ok.
Noooooo don’t use medical things in your sin counter. You don’t know what you’re talking about.
Some pregnancy tests are just positive or negative they don’t do hormonal levels. People donate pints of blood all the time and walk out just fine, Amy draws way less than that.... just don’t
Saffron Sugar what did she even use to take her blood out
Min Dee she stole a syringe from the hospital
The scene at the beginning with the patter is kind of the point. He fell in love with the image she projected not with the real her & visa versa.
And the police detective who was carrying a paper cup in every scene she’s in lol
cant believe you didn't sin the fact the neighbour called about the cat at all. Like cats are literally always outside that would be such a weird reason to call.
My boyfriend didn't own scissors until I bought him a pair.
Samantha Jon That's sad
my first Real scissors came as part of a Cutlery set... before that Pocket Knives did the job (the edges on some plastic 'shells' are so rigid I've seen them Break scissors)
Can I smell your computer chair?
he broke
And?
The cat room scene isn't a sin, though. Cats are in whatever room they want to be in.
: )
don't watch this on a first date
Tomas L i'm gonna do it. I'm gonna watch this on my first date and no one can stop me muahahaha
Tomas L I actually did it lol
Tomas L honest trailers said this same thing
It actually does the opposite of what you're thinking. This movie would spark debate on the movie and how your date perceives marriage and relationship. Which is a good opportunity to throw hints and cute flirts.
If you know how to handle a date, you shouldn't have a problem, Tomas
I couldn't have clicked on this shit fast enough. Easily one of the best movies of 2014
You don't get to say this about such a masterpiece
6:10 - "Emily Ratajkowski is not my girlfriend in this scene!"
You made Gone Girl way less frightening, and now I can stop having nightmares of being framed for murder in that way.
2:54 WOW! Catching the typo on her diploma is amazing but damn...just how meticulous do you all get at CinemaSins?! What would the punishment be for missing this?! 😂
Ok, most of the time I just brush these off. But I think the last, like, third of the sins betray a total misunderstanding of this movie's basic theme.
I mean, the whole point is that this murder investigation is ruled by public opinion. Of COURSE there's enough evidence to poke holes in Amy's story at the end. But it doesn't matter. Because public opinion has already decided she's telling the truth. That's, like, the whole point of the movie, guys.
this movie could have worked... if I had NEVER EVER seen a crime scene investigation show!
Coming back to this after the craziest civil court case so far. Talking about Depp v Turd of course
I've always wanted to ask you guys, what do you have against narration?
Zion Daily-Lee
The general objection is:
It's overused and its lazy. Overuse is self explanatory. The lazy aspect comes from the fact that rather than using backgrounds, dialogue, etc. to set the scene we are given a literal description of what's going on. It sounds basically like the script-writer just recorded themselves pitching the idea to a producer haha!
probably because cinema is a "visual" medium, and you should use that to "show", not "tell". but jeremy takes it to an extreme because this is primarily a comedy channel, and I am okay with that, and I am not okay with that.
i cant remember what the film is but theres a famous film about writers in university where the lecturer gets angry at anyone daring to use narration because its lazy
I mean all of this is understandable, but it's hard as a film maker lol. Narration can definitely come off as lazy but sometimes it's implemented well. Its a comedy channel though lol not that stressed about tbh just curious.
cheesy and lazy.
5:05 college diploma does NOT equal guaranteed job
Pretty much the only thing I got out of this video lol
Affleck was the perfect guy for the role. He excellently plays the line of innocent and we don’t know if he actually did it
”Play him like a fiddle”
Kaz : ”THEY PLAYED US LIKE A DAMN FIDDLE!!!”
This comment is so much better now that the series is coming out
kaz brekker?!
Everything wrong with miss peregrine please, the movie is so inconcistent its funny.
I haven't read the books, but the movie was absolutely amazing. The CGI was beautifully done, and I love the idea of a woman who turns into a bird tasked to care for children shunned by their society for what makes them special. I loved Mrs. Peregrin's ferocity when it came to her children.
Oh god, 6 upvotes for the guy that says that the movie is inconsistent, and 6 upvotes for the other guy who says it's a masterpiece, I'm panicking right now
Personally, I really liked it. No movie about time travel/loops and whatnot is going to be perfect because time manipulation is a theoretical study which, as far as we know, is currently impossible. There's really no wrong way to portray it since there's no standard definition of a correct way to explain it. So instead of nitpicking the sci-fi aspect of it, I enjoyed the story for what it was.
read the book then you'll get why some people hate it
It was so inconsistent with the books argghhhh
There was so much luck needed for her plan to work. People had to act in specific ways, evidence had to come forward at exact times and be interpreted, accepted at face value or overlooked as was needed to further her narrative. There were too many variables for this plan to work, nor could she know how the detectives on the case processed or received the information. She could not foresee all the possible ways her plan could fail and account for them without being a psychic.
1:25, it is a 500 Days of Summer-esque fantasy sequence. This is how she’s writing it in her diary for the cops to find. “Nick and Amy, the early years”
Everything Wrong With: Suicide Squad, Monster, The Pyramid, The Ruins, Domino.
The Ruins should have been good. :-(
He'll probably do Suicide Squad after it comes out on DVD in December
The ruins isn't a good book though. I felt zero sympathy for anyone in the book.
Danielle I haven't read it, but I thought the plot was a very promising idea.
Danielle Mmmm..kay.
"There are people who go through movies and look for inconsistencies and continuity errors, and they list them. I fear those people, and I also weep for them." - David Fincher
I'm hesitant to watch this...Gone Girl is one of my all time favorite films...
Andres Erickson hahaha same, I'll probably skip this one, i don't want it to ruin my love for the movie
Andres Erickson That is because you are insane.
a 3 year old wrote this movie its that bad
Read the book, Youll rethink that. The book is far better than the movie.
gpaul cinemasins is not that good. Some movies dont deserve sins and they still put it
I thought it was a good movie
he never said its not. I love it.
It was an amazing movie. Set a very different vibe than a lot of films.
love the movie but the cops are so fucking stupid, if she actually got arrested id have no problems with it. Shes the bad guy yet she doesn't get any repercussions for something really fucked up
That's kind of refreshing in a way though. Their aren't many movies were the villain wins at the end.
Well cops being fucking stupid is what kinda ruins this for me though. I get that in movies you should let certain stuff pass, but that is too much to ask. C'mon if these detectives would actually do their job, her whole plan would had fallen apart in day or two. Not to mention that her face is all over in media, yet no one regonize her when she walks in public? I know its U.S but even there people arent that stupid oh wait.....
