Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

I got the virtual fx system that came with the 2 wireless glasses and some movies. The fist movie I popped in and watched was the Haunted Castle. I have been to a few IMAX movies in 3d and I knew it was not going to live up to that par, but it was still good. If you can watch the movie with the lights off and the sound on wither it's a stereo system or some head phones, you should enjoy this movie. Yes while watching it, you may feel like your in a video game, but the music and effects of 3d effects should help you out there. All in all this movie is good. Of if you get a chance, watch the special features as the directors and cast are in 3D.

I had never seen an IMAX movie before I saw this, so naturally I was excited to see it, unaware of the 40 minutes of torture awaiting me.This film has the dumbest plot in history. An untalented rock star (Jasper Steverlinck - Who? Exactly.) returns to his mom's haunted castle where he encounters the devil (Harry Shearer), who is going by the name of Mr. D (*cringe*) and is forcing rock stars to work for him, or else he kills themwith guilotines and crap. "Mr. D" also killed Jaspy's mom (who is equally untalented in music as her son) and is now trying to get Jasper to work for him (God only knows what Mr. D sees in this hack). We're forced to watch this cringefest and listen to the worst music ever for a slow and painful 40 minutes. We hear the main characters song (which seems to be the only song he knows) like 5 times. Seeing this was the first time I've ever wanted to walk out of a movie, but the IMAX had us in locked seats like on a roller coaster (not sure if that's how all IMAX movies are?). It made me feel like Alex in A Clockwork Orange. Your humble commenter was boo-hoo-hoo-ing for the credits to roll. Of course, wants they came along, we got to hear Japser's song all the way through again. :(0/10 - AVOID AT ALL COSTS

Wow! Shucks! What can i say Two worlds collide the intricate plot had me and my family really warped in the fantastic film! WoW! The music was incredible - loved the free pair of sunglasses that came with the DVD! bit fake having a roller coaster in a castle so i gave it 9/10 but otherwise perfect for birthday or Christmas!!! It was an emotional voyage as the bereaved mother fought to save her son from selling his soul to the fantastically voiced Mr D. (Harry Shearer). I felt that the enjambement was unreal and the castle provided perfect pathetic fallacy! I have not seen a better interpretation of an evil overlord who controls immortal singers since pearl harbour. watch it. period.

Well, not the BEST movie I've ever seen, but it deffinetly is one of my favourites! It had just a few things I like about a movie; rock music, gothic, very hot guy, lots of horror. It was a fun roller coaster ride through a bone chilling gothic castle. I'm glad there was a plot line, as thin and flimsy as it was. It was still a potentially strong plot line, and I think if they had focused a bit more on strengthening the plot, and perhaps made it a longer movie, it would have been excellent. But after all, it was an Imax movie, so you can't expect box office masterpieces jumping out from those screens. Nonetheless, it was VERY enjoyable, and I intend to buy the DVD and if I can, the soundtrack. I LOVE that song he sings at the beginning and end.
