April 29, 2020Take this Waltz (2011)Well writer/director Sarah Polley doesn't seem to have a full feature film after this and she was on the crest of a wave at the time. Truly one of the most problematic times I've had reviewing a film and there's an awful lot here that fills me with revulsion. One of my favorite actresses Michelle Williams being case in point, wonderful, searing performance but here character made me genuinely angry. Lots of terrible dramatic and narrative decisions really clouded what ultimately was a pretty powerful film with a killer last shot....more10minPlay

April 29, 2020I Saw the Devil (2010)Well I can understand completely forgetting dire films exist but this Korean slasher film sounds awesome and very extreme, especially as it stars no less a luminary than Choi Min-sik as a serial killer (Oldboy himself!) definitely re-watching this, this could end up the best reason for doing the podcast! The director Kim Jee-woon doesn't seem to have done much else of note....more3minPlay

April 28, 2020Battleships (2012)Holy crap I gave Battleships 7.5/10. Jesus. Look I kinda enjoyed it and I really like Taylor Kitsch, he just keeps getting shafted by bad movies. I liked John Carter too....more6minPlay

April 21, 2020This Must Be the Place (2011)Wow, how did I ever give this mindblowingly atrocious film 5/10?! If you've ever hated Sean Penn for taking on roles full of mannerisms, this will have you longing for I Am Sam. Truly one of the worst films that of that decade. Jawdroppingly terrible and inept and bizarre - how someone ever though even the idea of the screenplay (or three or four screenplays as its such a jarring mess) should've been possible to make into a film. Its something like Robert Smith of The Cure lives in a mansion in Ireland, goes to watch a Talking Heads concert and is inspired to shoot Nazis. Seriously not even making that up. Def the worst Sean Penn performance of all....more8minPlay

April 21, 2020The Rum DIaries (2011)After Fear and Loathing, Johnny Depp returns with another crack at worthy Hunter S Thompson adaption, this time his straighter, slightly less hallucinogenic autobiographic remembrance/recreation in his early years as a journalist in Puerto Rico. Like it's predecessor, I'm glad it exists but it's not a great film. Most notable today for the love interest......more4minPlay
