It takes a brave man that admits to watching starship troopers 3.
It takes a braver man to actually sit through the whole film.

Away we go.
Anyone seen this? Was pleasantly surprised on the originality of the film - real strong writing/dialogue, focusing on the lives of a couple nearing their mid-30s. Kinda like a coming of age - realisation that the next step into adulthood is the consideration on what makes a good home.
Think it takes an interesting take on how couples wait to their 30s whereas the generation before started the whole children/settling down thing in their 20s ('Selfishness' or the 'sacrifices' of the domestic institution).
Cool indie film making. Made me think of a Coupland novel.
And a great contribution to the coming of age genre - in that, it's not another teen movie...

My dad lent that to me - it's one that my brother has dld, and my brother generally has fucking shit taste in films, so I shall be giving this a miss
I watched Star Trek last night, and an episode of Deadwood S2. Star Trek was quite funny in places actually, surprised me. I liked that this Kirk was just as hammy as Shatner, and I really liked the warp speed take-offs, they were
yes i liked it a lot, the slushy music almost ruined it tho but it was easy to ignore as it only played between scenes.

Michael Moore's Capitalism: A Love Story.
It's Michael Moore. You either enjoy his schtick or you don't. I do.
Loved the swing version of The Internationale during the closing credits:
I think I've found my new ringtone

28 Weeks Later. It was truly fucking dire. If you know where I can contact Danny Boil or the Director please let me know. As for the pissed up epileptic cameraman. If he ever comes to the U.K. I will beat the the bastard to death with a pogo stick.
Guerrilla filming is one thing but this was chimpanzee filming.

The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. Very grim in places but a good film.
However, I think the original title of the film, Men Who Hate Women, was a more apt title.

I watched Affliction (1997) earlier, which I enjoyed alot. A film about how domestic violence & alcoholism can pass from one generation to the next via the story of a small northern US town sherif investigating a suspicious hunting accident. Great cast too, - Nick Nolte, James Coburn, William Dafoe, Sissy Spacek,

Dream of Life, the recent Patti Smith documentary. It looks great and there is a lot of interesting material there, but director Jay Sebring could have done with a good editor to shape this into less meandering film. It has a stream of consciousness style that will only appeal to people who are fans already, but which may be mystifying for anybody who doesn't know much about her. It was shot over 12 years, but there is no chronology to it and nothing is put into any sort of context. You have Smith mention that Benjamin Smoke has just died and then fifteen minutes later you see a (completely out of it) Smoke on the stage with her, with no more mention being made of him.
Still, there is much about the film to like, especially how Smith comes across. I've always had a bit of a crush on her and seeing her as such a grounded, easy going and allround decent person was a pleasure. Looking forward the reading her autobiographical book Just Kids now.

Exasperated, not angry.
grrr, that was another thing I missed yesterday, seeing Patti 'in conversation' down the road, as I had a union thing to do. Turns out she came on late, and massively over-ran so I could have got to most of it anyway! Bugger

Law Abiding Citizen - a bit far-fetched and very violent. Enjoyable romp.
Gamer - meh, I like Dexter so it's OK.
Harry Brown. OK..so all my films were extremely violent. Caine's was actually the darkest and most (realistically) violent. Still far-fetched though.

I liked the bits where Leonidas was running and shooting - captured the feel of a videogame well. The rest of it was a bit meh.
