^I love Office Space, i've watched it more than 10 times, but never knew it was from Beavis & Butthead's creator. I thought it was an unheard of movie. That really made my day.

You thought Office Space was an unheard of movie? Have you ever walked into a Hot Topic, or a KOHL's, or turned on Comedy Central?

I think the last movie I saw was O Lucky Man! and it was brilliant. The soundtrack by Alan Price is priceless (see what I did there? pretty clever huh?).

I just saw Crank .. an incredibly stupid movie with Jason Statham performing violence, sex in public and other kinds of general nastiness. It was fast paced action with with a touch of comedy right from the start.

Chelios (Statham) is a hitman who's gotten himself poisoned by some concoction that blocks adrenaline receptors. The result? He'll die .. unless he keeps the adrenaline pumping. While he's trying to get revenge on his would-be killer, he has to make sure his adrenaline stays high, for example by random acts of violence, public sex, drinking excessive amounts of red bull or even forcing a doctor at gunpoint to give him a hit with the defibrillators ..

Actually, it was pretty darn enjoyable! Watch it if you can enjoy a simple action flick that simply aims to entertain.

I think that's generally the rule for all Jason Statham movies (except for his ones with Guy Ritchie of course). He likes his daft absent minded action movies probably because they keep him in shape and he likes to have a good time, I can't really blame the guy though I mean if I know those types of movies would keep me in shape and guarantee me a steady pay check I'd continue to do them.

Anyways I just finished up this little gem:

One of my favourite British movies however it is VERY British. The dialogue is very unforgiving if you're unfamiliar with the slang and accents, even after 8 months over there I struggled my first time watching it. I loved the acting and the guerilla style filming (with one helicopter overhead scene that probably cost half the budget). This movie really shows you how great an actor Paddy Considine is and it makes you wonder why he hasn't penetrated the North American market yet. The best thing the movie does is it gives you a great inside view to what life in a small British village is like, because the "gangs" come off as extremely laughable compared to their urban counterparts, but that's what it's like in some places. If you like British gangster movies and revenge plots then this is a movie you should really check out.

I also forgot to mention the actor who plays Anthony (Toby Kebbel) does an extrodoary job playing a mentally challenged person.

I finally was able to get my hands on a copy of [REC] and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised with it. I have yet to see it's American counter part Quarantine, however from what I've read about it it's inferior in ever way to [REC]. I thought it was a little slow at first, I mean the occupant infected didn't really seem all that threatening, however that's just due to their short exposure to the virus. The last fifteen minutes are where the movie really shines, now I don't normally hold a pillow while watching a horror movie (in fact I had never done so since tonight) but when Angela and Pablo get up to the penthouse apartment I had ever light in my room and I was holding my pillow like my life depended on it. I am extremely excited that they're filming a sequel to this and will be one of the few movies I go see in theaters. In a nutshell if you like foreign horror movies, a shaky camera, and beautiful Spanish women then you'll enjoy this movie.

I finally got a chance to see District 9 and it was a bit more demented than I thought it was going to be. Everytime I laughed at one of those parts the guy sitting behind me would make a comment about how the movie is inappropriate for him.

I like the two themes of greed and segregation that were explored in the movie. The camera-work was excellent except for two shots where the camera sat on top of the gun facing the guy holding the gun. I thought they were highly unnecessary.

I think it's odd that people who like this film acknowledge it's incredibly stupid, yet most didn't enjoy the squeal because it's too stupid. I don't get it...what made it cross the imaginary line of retardation which separates the fun stupid from bad stupid?

It is stupid, but I think it just manages to maintain a kind of charm. Even though it's not labeled as a comedy genre-wise (imdb says Action, Crime, Drama, Thriller), I laughed a lot during this movie because it was funny and over the top. If the "comedy" hadn't worked, then I don't think I personally would have liked it.

It's easy to imagine how this could become an unfunny action mess or become too silly and embarassing. I think it manages to balance nicely between those two so it just works. I haven't seen the second one, but I think I'll give it a shot.

Let me just say that I'm happy I checked this out of the library because there's no way I'd pay money to see it. The "twist" was tired and predictable and Di Niro and Pacino are really starting to show their age.
