Must update quicker
Need to start updating this thing quicker as all the shit I watch is starting to blend together and I can't help you, the loyal reader, to avoid the really bad stuff, plus then I can't be arsed to write much about each film. So things will be short this week
Hide and Seek
Can the DeNiro who isn't in it for the money please come back and stop doing shit like this. Thumbs Down
Match Point
Hailed as a return to form for Woody Allen by American critics, hailed as the biggest piece of shit he has done in a while by me. Thumbs Down
I trust You to Kill Me
Documentary following Kiefer Sutherland as he manages Rocco Deluca and the Burden on a Tour of Europe. Pretty good, the highlight being Keifer attacking a Christmas Tree. Thumbs Up
Thumbsucker
Not much to say other than I liked this, even with Keanu Reeves playing a hippy dentist. Thumbs Up
Cecil B. Demented
John Water's anti-hollywood film about rebel film makers who kidnap one of the biggest stars in the world and force her to make a movie. Not as depraved as Waters usually gets so it was a bit disapointing. Thumbs in the Middle
The Da Vinci Code
Got a call to sit in on the test run of the print last Thursday so I had the pleasure of being able to slag this out load without annoying anyone as I was the only one there. I think the worst aspect of the film is that it thinks it has some important message to tell. Thumbs Down
American Pie present Band Camp
Beyond shit, Thumbs Down
The 40 Year Old Virgin
The story really gets in the way of this being funny at times, the bits with the main male characters together is genius at times though. Thumbs Up
Repo Man
I had forgotten how weird this was at times, Emilo Estevez plays a repoman chasing after a car with dead aliens in the boot, Harry Dean Stanton's great in this as well. Thumbs Up
Phone booth
I just get a kick out of watching Colin Farrel getting tortured for an hour cause I think he is a prick. Thumbs Up
Razorback
Australian Giant Boar flick with plenty of hill billys, do I need to say more. Thumbs Up
The Woodsman
Kevin Bacon plays a pedo who is just out of prison and is trying to go straight but ends up living across the street from a grade school. Creepy and thought provoking. Thumbs Up
New DVD's
Extras Series one - And then all her clothes fall off and its too late I have seen it all - Genius
Closer - Natalie portman as a stripper, oh yes
New CD's
The Raconteurs - Broken Boy Soldiers - Taken a few listens but really starting to like this
Eagles Of Death Metal - Death By Sexy - On the first few listens pretty disappointing and not a patch on there first album

De Niro has been involved in some awfully shite films lately, right enough. What was that one, about the cloned child, who was getting all the memories of his evil original, or something like that? Awful. I haven't seen Hide And Seek, and I probably never will.
I'm sure I've seen Razorback at one point or another -- it may have been during a semi-lucid fever dream, though.
'Extras' kicks arse. Go Pickard!
Oh no: I have committed a great and unforgivable sin.
I spelt 'Picard' 'Pickard'.
I have fond memories of Hide and Seek. Not of the film itself, but just of seeing it. We were seated a few seats away from another couple, and when you-know-who gets pushed out of the window near the end, the female of this couple, in shock, let out this big dramatic "Jasyyyyyyyyyysus!".
We cracked up for about fifteen minutes after that. Very inappropriate.
Supposed to see the Da Vinci code today after work, but I don't want to be contributing to this muck smashing box office records.
