"Stoker" was easily my favorite film of 2013 – it's incredible filmmaking and rewards repeated viewings. I would love to see the extra 20 minutes that were cut, but I have to say I think the film plays beautifully at it's released running time. In the past I sometimes have felt PCK's films have run a little long ("Thirst"), but I want to see those extra scenes. Check out Mark Kermode's BBC video review of "Stoker" on You Tube – insightful and hilarious.

Dear Fox Searchlight: Please issue the "Director's Cut" Blu-ray of STOKER. FYI, this was was one of my favorite films from last year. Yours truly . . .

I really enjoyed Stoker and thought it was critically well received. 68% on Rotten Tomatoes isn't that bad. Definitely would like to see 20 minutes more.

If Matthew Goode's character had turned out to be a vampire in a Let Me In meets Lolita-style twist (as the trailer suggested) I would have been happy. But the 'twist reveal' we all saw coming a mile away is what ruined the film.

No idea that Stoker split opinion so much. It was my favourite film of 2013 (followed by ShortTerm12, Place Beyond The Pines, Warm Bodies, The Great Beauty… and IronMan3)

Must've been the 20 good minutes of it. Direction was fine but that story/screenplay was derivative and utterly silly.

I would LOVE 20 minutes more of Stoker. I could be very wrong, but I think time will be kind to Stoker. I thought it was pretty fantastic. It could also look horrible in 10-15 years. In any case, I'd love to see something that was a better approximation of Park's vision
