Submarine One of the best British films I've seen in ages. I love black comedies, and this works upon a paradoxical brand of twisted innocence. It's very amusing, in a completely understated way. The setting is also great, it seems to all take place in a small village surrounded by mountainous, craggy Welsh countryside and a barren coastline. It all conveys this insular, shadowy atmosphere that, coupled with the sharp dialogue and soundtrack, gives the whole thing this darkly enchanting aesthetic. Really good coming-of-age film, and it's directed by Richard Ayoade, he of IT Crowd fame. |

I've been rewatching a lot of my favorite movies lately. I rewatched Gummo, Kids, Y Tu Mama Tambien, XXY, Martyrs, City of God, Wendy and Lucy, The Weather Man, Kill Bills, and Let the Right One In. All 10/10s, or 9/10s.
For movies I've never seen I watched Fucking Amal(1998) on Youtube. A young story about two young girls discovering their sexuality in a small town in Sweden. I absolutely loved it. The first half of this movie is pretty much perfect, then it focuses on the Elin character, who I didn't like as much as Agnes, but the second half is still great. I liked the upbeat ending a lot, I expected a downer, but it took me by surprise. 9/10. |

@Stu Haha, yeah, I loved Submarine when I went to see it. Probably the best film I've seen so far this year.
Anyway, I watched Harry Potter & The Order of the Phoenix last night on UTV. It was always one of my favourite Potters, and I still enjoy it even now. Next I'm hoping to either see Cowboys & Aliens (which will probably be terrible, but the original teaser means I have to watch it in case it matches the quality of the film) or The Inbetweeners Movie, which I must not miss no matter what life throws at me.

Re-watched 61 a few days ago. Really enjoyed this again. Billy Crystal does a fine job in showing the chase for the elusive Babe Ruth homerun record. Good cast in Pepper and Jane. |

But, I'm A Cheerleader This is the first lesbian romantic comedy I have seen. It is ok, but I feel as if only the lead characters have depth.

Watching this for a second time. it's so cute it hurts. it's a documentary about a family who has an autistic son who goes to Mongolia to see if their shamanic traditions can "heal" their son. They ride across mongolia on horses and visit shaman to shaman. |
