Just watched No Country for Old Men again. Great psycho! He's a bit like the two killers in Pulp Fiction in that he has a moral code which just happens to be different to anyone else's.
Watched A Scanner Darkly last night - again. Great movie. I'd certainly watch it again. Lots of humour and a brilliant twist.
Dick's dedications at the end are pretty poignant.
Shelock Holmes with RDJ and that one dude from Enemy at the Gates
Rating: Slightly above dog feces
Match Point, directed by Woody Allen, excellent, very enjoyable romance/thiller.
9/10.
Available on i-player at the moment!
It genuinely scared me, and I don't know why. After I watched it I kept pulling my feet away from the edges of the bed when I was trying to sleep.Quote:

Not the end of civilisation as we know it, merely another step along the way.

Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs
4/10
Why am I not surprised that it only got 4/10?Quote:

And it also once again displays why Pacino is one of the great actors.
9/10.
P.S. I think Cowboys Versus Aliens looks pretty cool. :nod:
Currently watching Love and Death whilte drinking Wolf Blass white wine:

If only.
Well, perhaps it has not aged as well as some of the other Allen films, like Manhattan, Annie Hall for sure, but still there were a few good lines and witty moments in there 6.8/10 (Match Point which is on i-player is recommended!)Quote:
