Shangai Noon - My brother got it for my b'day, it was far more cheesy than I recalled, but an alright way to spend a couple of hours on a rainy Sunday.

 

All is well though, I ordered TMNT (UK copy as I only had a US copy before), Friday Night Lights, Groundhog Day and Dead Men's Shoes on DVD this week.

 

So tonight it's a takeaway pizza and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles with the Mrs.. If I impress her by quoting every line before it's said in the film I'm sure to get some action.

The Chronicles of Riddick Director's Cut

 

It's very different to Pitch Black but I'm glad for that. There's nothing worse than a souped up part 2. The Necromongers are quite a strange idea but very well executed with lots of interesting characters and Riddick is even cooler than in the first film. However, he is more like an anti-hero now instead of a cold killer. Still a great action-sci-fi film. Especially how they created Helion Prime is absolutely outstanding and the war also feels quite accurate.

 

8/10

The Queen

 

Set around the events of Dianas death, this film is somewhat adoring of the Queen but is rather deliciously snide of everyone else. Michael Sheen is brilliant as Tony Blair, and it's strong performances all around. Godd stuff though a little strained.

7/10

 

Also

and Renassance look incredible. Can't wait for either.

The Departed

 

Excellant movie. Strong script, great performances (especially from Nicholson. completely awesome from start to finish), and just had that Scorsese class spread all over it. The part with the strap-on was a bit fucked-up, but still...

 

9/10

 

 

Also saw The Full Monty again yesterday. 8.5/10. Still an enjoyable heart-warmer.

I'd also give it a 9. I've never seen a Scorsese film before but it certainly lives up to his reputation. I enjoyed it and it had that dark sense of humour I seem to have.

Isn't Renaisance out? Looks interesting. Is it the one set in France?

 

I don't know. It might be out in some places - looks like much more of an alternative action film, so I doubt it would have a national rollout. My dinky wee cinema thrives on this sort of stuff, but as a more alternative venue can't always get the latest prints first.
