Coffee and Cigarettes

Hmm

(Edit) 07/03/2006

We had to watch this in two sittings as we couldn't get into it. The first one and the one with Steve Coogan were the best. I suppose they were quite artistic and had some interesting concepts but they weren't really developed. We had the feeling that we just didn't 'get it'.

Kingdom of Heaven

Unmemorable

(Edit) 11/01/2007

I got this one out a while ago, forgot I'd seen it and requested it again, so unmemorable it is. Looks good visually and Orlando is gorgeous but there's no substance to it.

Elephant

Enyeuse

(Edit) 19/01/2007

This was the worst film I have ever seen. The documentary style of the film makes it seem very realistic but also very boring as it trawls through the day at the school

The Butterfly Effect

Indie Angst

(Edit) 31/01/2006

A good film, I would recommend it. American teen-y whilst remaining independant, too. Reminded me a bit of Donnie Darko.

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead

Word Games

(Edit) 01/02/2007

Very entertaining and amusing if you are the sort of person that likes word games and Shakespeare. I don't know Hamlet and think I may have missed a few things, but still found it a very original film.

13 Going on 30

Fun film

(Edit) 31/01/2006

This was much better than I'd expected. Jennifer Garner is really good at acting like a girl trapped in a woman's body, and it's a real feel-good film. As a 30 year old myself, I liked the 80's references - especially the thriller dance.

Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo

Digalow the Bigalow

(Edit) 07/03/2007

Hilarious! Rob Schneider is a Beta- male fish tank cleaner who ends up becoming a gigolo, whilst looking after hunky 'Anoine's' fish. Deuce's nice character wins out, however, and he becomes very sucessful. if you liked The Animal, this is even funnier.

Zoolander

Zoo

(Edit) 14/08/2006

I found this a really funny film. Stiller and Wilson play thick, vain but good-hearted models with contrasting charachters.

My only criticisms are that the plot is a bit silly and there are some small jokes I may have missed as the film is American.

Max and Paddy's Road to Nowhere: Series 1

Phoenix without the flame

(Edit) 07/03/2007

Not as good as Phoenix nights, but entertaining even so. Found it a bit 'laddish' but suppose that is expected given that it is about two bouncers in a camper van.

Alexander

Alexander

(Edit) 14/08/2006

A historical epic in the style of Troy and Gladiator, the film looks fantastic, and from the extra commentary, does appear to have been researched fully. Whilst so much effort was put into making it as historically accurate to Alexander The Great's life as possible, it was incredible to hear several dreadful Irish accents creeping in. Why that was allowed is a mystery, nevertheless, the film is strangely gripping, and the possibility of Alexander's homosexuality also gives the film a darker edge.

Pump It Up: The Ultimate Dance Workout

Great

(Edit) 17/05/2007

This is great. A workout challenging enough for someone of average to good fitness. I didn't want to give it back so I went out and bought it.

Galaxy Quest

Galaxy Quest

(Edit) 15/08/2006

You don't have to be a trekkie to watch this but it helps if you've seen a few episodes. This film has another layer to it which makes it much more entertaining than a traditional Sci-Fi film. Very enjoyable, I could watch it again.

21 Grams

Tragedy

(Edit) 10/01/2008

Well, things just go from bad to worse for the three main characters involved. Didn't know what was going on at the start of the film, but got into it, and ended up thinking the film was interesting, but heavy.
