Folks over at the Media Blog are down on Funny Games, the new Naomi Watts movie that came out this weekend. I’m not so sure. While the film is very hard indeed to watch, it’s certainly not torture porn in the sense that, say, the Saws and Hostels of this world are usually said to be (I write ‘said to be’ because I’ve never actually seen one of those movies, and, thanks to what I’ve read about them, have no plans to do so any time soon).
