"Predators" - it was alright, easy to watch and Adrian Brody made quite a good action hero. Good undemandinf Saturday night fare

I watched Street Trash yesterday and am now a bit confused about what I saw. I can't work out whether it was so bad it was good or just bad.

pale knuckle grip on this steering wheel
Have heard 50/50 results on this so far
Also heard the sequel is already being made. It's going to be called "Another 127 Hours" and it's going to have Eddie Murphy in it, playing all the parts.

An episode of Star Trek: The Animated series where Kirk, Spock, McCoy and some other bloke are held captive by a group of women who drain their life force. It did include the phrase "slumber chamber" which I intend to use wherever and whenever possible!
Oil City Confidential (2009)
I'm still enjoying it, even though it finished 5 hours ago.
It's Dr. Feelgood. Documentary. An affectionate documentary.
God, they all come across as really nice guys that it would be brilliant to have a few drinks and a chat with (save for the tee-total Wilko who would still be great company nevertheless!)
If you haven't seen this - or if you've never even heard of the Feelgoods, that don't matter - if you like music and London...watch it. Lovely film.

It is a bit cack, tbh. Watched Cronos - which cheered me up, apart from intrusive soundtrack; wicked take on vampire mythos.

One on one? You're crazy.
Oh and I watched 'Children of the Damned' last night - the John Carpenter version - Christopher Reeve's last film before the accident - scary possessed by aliens silver haired kids , making folk kill themselves and that - the kids had hair very similar in colour to mine

This weekend I watched:
Scott Pilgrim vs The World - shite, turned off after an hour
Wheel of Time - ok, but nothing special
Incident at Loch Ness - you can tell its not real from the start, interesting idea but doesnt really pull it off

Christmas Eve, you know?
Watched four over the weekend -
Street Fight. Remember the political bits of The Wire? If you liked that, you'll like this. It's a documentary about the mayoral contest in Newark New Jersey in 2006. The Obama-esque Cory Brooker went up against the old-school black broker pol Sharpe James. The fight got really, really, dirty. To the point where outside election observers had to be sent in to keep an eye on the voting itself.
Catch Us if You Can. The Dave Clark Five try to do their own Hard Day's Night. Unfortunately, they have none of the talent or charm of the Beatles. It is interesting as a slice of 'swinging London' era UK life.
The Last Waltz. I hadn't seen this in a while and I'd forgotten how good it is. And it is really, really good. Best bit is Joni Mitchell doing 'Coyote'.
Strangers on a Train. If I do your murder, can you do my murder? Great melodramatic fun from Hitchcock.

I watched The Town, a heist move directed by and starring Ben Affleck and really enjoyed it. I also watched Catfish, documentary about a photographer who gets into a Facebook relationship with a small girl and her family and finds all is not as it seems. Ok, not great. Restrepo, well worth watching if you're interested in the Afghanistan war, a bit like Generation Kill but real.
And then I watched The Expendables. I wasn't expecting anything great, I was really ok with mindless fun but fuck me. I mean, come on. It started off ok, with the scenes in the film making sense and then it just turned into shots of people being killed. It seemed as though they'd forgotten to edit the last half of the movie. Terrible, absolutely rubbish and I have very low standards.

I just wanted to see if you reverse rated them. The first four are excellent but the last four are unwatchable toss.

Savagely hungover today so I watched The Step Father, Unthinkable and The Beyond.

Mary Reilly - The story of Doctor Jekyll and Mr Hyde as seen through the eyes of Jekyll's house maid, Mary. There are a couple of really effective scenes (including a Cronenberg-style transformation towards the end), but this really isn't very good. Blame the casting. John Malkovich is nothing special (as either Jekyll or Hyde), Glenn Close seems to think she's playing Widow Twankey at the Birmingham Hippodrome, and Julia Roberts is so horribly miscast as the titular character that I wondered halfway through if the whole thing wasn't some kind of elaborate joke at her expense. It did make me laugh to see Roberts sharing scenes with George Cole (Arthur Daley) and Kathy Staff (Nora Batty) though.

Splice: I was really looking forward to seeing this, mainly because I loved director Vincenzo Natali's 2002 film Cypher. Unfortunately it's a bit disappointing. The main characters are totally unsympathetic (has Adrien Brody been good in anything ever?) and what could have been a really bizarre and unsettling story (scientists manipulate the DNA of a variety of creatures - including a human - to create a new life form) never lives up to its promise. A missed opportunity.
