    The Ides of March.

    Good movies about politics are unusual, maybe I think that because I compare everything to The West Wing, but this one I really enjoyed.

    It was focused on dialogs and didn’t have to use phony car chases etc to get thrilling. The Ides of March show how power always tends to corrupt and I think Nietzsche was right that driving force in humans, all our achievements and ambition, the striving to reach the highest possible position in life, are all manifestations of the will to power.


    3/5
    There is hope, but not for us.

    'Perfect Stranger' gets a 5/10. Wasn't really as good as 'Gothika'.

    The seventh seal 10/10 some of life's most deepest enigmas are bought up in a solemn and in some parts scary way, the acting is very well done, the feeling the movie creates is perfect, i really enjoyed this one

    A Certain Smile, on YouTube.

    A very romantic version of a romantic novel by Francoise Sagan. Very picturesque scenes of Paris and the south if France with elegant people in luxurious surroundings. Directed by Jean Negalescu, everyone's favourite glossy film maker, it's the perfect picture for women and sentimentalists; who are not necessarily one and the same thing. I had seen it before but watching it again was very enjoyable. With not a baseball cap in sight, it beats the phony, juvenile nihilistic, pseudo Freudian angst-ridden rubbish of today by a mile.

    10/10.

    Catfish, a supposed-documentary on identity. Entertaining and thought-provoking. 8/10.

    My Idiot Brother. 9/10 I don't care. I liked it. It makes me want a golden retriever, and if I ever own one I know what I'm naming it.

    The King's Speech - Quite an average film if in all honesty. Nowhere near as good as what critics are making out.

    Going to be watching some Woody Allen again over the next few weeks.

    Currently watching Vicky Christina Barcelona again - good fun.

    Want to watch Manhattan again, but will save that for later weeks.

    Yes, very good film. I suspect at one point, maybe early on, that the guys knew something was 'off'. But this does happen on the internet all the time. I know a few people who have false identities.

    I watched Tyrannosaur last night. Gritty, bleak, compelling, are some words that spring to mind. Think Ken Loach meets Irvine Welsh, and you are thereabouts. Best film I've seen in a while.

    Saw the new Tin Tin movie yesternight. (Growing up I adored the comics.) It was decent. Better than I anticipated.

    I saw Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol on Wednesday eve I'll be generous and give it a 6 out of 10. Last night I saw the new The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, it was fantastic 9 out of 10. Tonight I am seeing War Horse, can't wait! Will fill you in latter!
