Excellent film alright. Powerful enough.

Watched Forgetting Sarah Marshall again recently and it's some laugh. That Paul Rudd guy is priceless- I Love You, Man is another good one.

The Hangover. Funniest film seen in long time. Not the most original & some obvious gags but that doesn't matter. Lots laugh out loud moments. Mick Tyson cameo a little weird.

SPOILER: While it might have had the subtlety of a man kicked in the balls the kid with the stun gun had me crying with laughter

Definitely funniest credits ever!

Watched an hour of Transformers 2, utter garbage thats even worse than the first one. Michael Bay needs to be executed pretty soon.

Two movies I caught whilst on holiday that should be out here in the next few months are The Brothers Bloom and Food Inc.

Brothers Bloom stars Adrian Brody, Rachel Weisz and Mark Ruffalo and is very enjoyable, if a little long. Well worth checking out though.

Food Inc. is a documentary on where our food comes from, not just the usual look at battery farms either, this shows some startling facts on who controls the wheat and soya industry, how this came about and how devestating it has been for the American farming community. Suffice to say you realise that to have a clear conscience when eating you need to exclusively eat the dirt from your back yard

The Departed.

Still trying to figure out how that got an Oscar. Really shows how much those awards have been devalued. Scripted lifted 90% from Internal Affairs & hopeless Hollywood ending. To think Scorsese said he didn't lift from original script.

) and so wouldnt have had to eat those berries.
Im going to see Transformers 2 now in awhile,will let ye know what its like.

Very true, great film, hard to believe it's based on a true story.

FYI - For those interested with a PS3, the North American Bluray for this will work on UK PS3s - it's a great film and the scenary shots are fantastic.

It's the second film by the guy who made the very clever indie high school noir Brick. I don't think it's out here yet, but it looks worth a look if and when it arrives.

Not seen inernal affairs, is it any good?

**ken foree** · 06/07/2009, 5:41 PM

hmm dunno that one either, sounds like something you might find on tube8?? they did film the end of the departed in the alley next to my job here, hordes of people would stand daily in a car park waiting for a glimpse of jack or leo or marty... it was about 95 american degrees out too. morons!

At this stage, I'm unsure whether you mean Infernal Affairs or are riffing on ken foree's post.

Anyway, Infernal Affairs is worth a look. I hear a shot for shot remake that was somehow almost an hour longer won an Oscar.

I tried to watch Benjamin Button the other night and had to give up before the two hour mark. Painful. Slow. How did Fincher go from the Zodiac to Button?

**SkStu** · 06/07/2009, 9:39 PM

Defiance - decent. 3.5/5

Powder Blue - not sure what i think of it actually but Jessica Biel gets them out. Twice. 5/5
