In a Guy Ritchie film, Robert Downey Jr. is set to play Sherlock Holmes with Will Ferrell as Watson? For the life of me, I really don't know what to think ( Read more... )

Last night I saw Hancock, Will Smith's latest film in which he plays an unwelcome superhero, driven to alcoholism by a world that won't accept him. So naturally, it's a comedy. A pretty good one, too. I doubt it could stand repeat viewing but it's a decent one-shot. Nicely, the trailer gave nothing away and I did not see the twist coming at all. ( Read more... )

I should maybe post about real things but this week I have mostly just been working and watching films, so this post is all review. Except this paragraph, explaining the post. And maybe one at the end showing that hey guys, post is over, so it doesn't creep up on you all of a sudden. Also, maybe I'll stick a paragraph in there where I scream ( Read more... )

So Ellen Page has played a paedophile's victim/attacker, a pregnant teenager and now she's a young republican with a crush on her uncle 'cause he's the only guy in her life you even vaguely gets her. But that's just a side plot as the real focus of Smart People is Dennis Quaid's detached professor learning that there's more to life than book deals ( Read more... )

I've just completed Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. Oh Em Gee this game brought the awesome. I mean, all the CoDs have had fairly decent single player campaigns, but this one just looked at all the others and went "not awesome enough. Lets add nukes." So they did, in a horrific way ( Read more... )
