Can't fault any of those! I even like ELFs... Kari Wuhrer helps! In fact, isn't Scar-Jo in that too? That's one mother-daughter sandwich I'd like to be the filling in.Motorway to Roswell wrote:
Seen quite a few lately.
Watched Rec 2 last night. It's a straight up action film compared to the horror of the first. Those that said this is Aliens to the firsts Alien are spot on. Enjoyed it just as much as the first, and look forward to seeing the origin story this year.
Watched District 9 for a second time. Fuck me, does it good look on bluray! I don't like the fake talking heads, but other than that it's almost up there with Aliens for a action sci-fi film. Wasn't quite as good as I remember it being at the cinema tho. Reason being is I have now seen Monsters which is almost 100% spot on with it's non-intrusive world/story building. The fake documentary/interviews in District 9 now seem dated and unnecessary.
American : A Bill Hicks Story - Quite enjoyed it. Got enough new annecdotes in it from family and friends that it will contain stuff for even the most hardcore Hicks fan.
Tamara Drewe - I'll watch pretty much anything with Miss Arterton in it, but this was pretty poor. Had a few laughs thanks to the sweary/dirty teen girls, but didn't know what it was trying to be and ended up with some bizarre tacked-on end
Black Sunday - This is an extremely influential italian horror film starring Barbara Steele. A lot of the scenes are instantly recongizable from other horrors since, Sleepy Hollow immediately springing to mind. Genuinely scary for the first 30 minutes then some bad acting/dubbing lets it down, still good tho
Witchfinder General - Wasn't as good as Black Sunday, but Vinnie Price is awesome in the titular role. Not much happens in it tbh.
Tron Legacy - It's not as bad as I thought it would be. The visuals and OST alone make it a 3/5.
Get Him to the Greek last night - it was mildly amusing, but 20 minutes too long perhaps. Did stretch on at a few times. Brand is just playing himself, as is Jonah Hill. However Puff Daddy is great and needs to be in more things.
Gamer - got about 2/3rds of way through, had no idea what was going on, and fell asleep.
