Johnny English (2003)
Worst film of all time?
Is it just me or is this a very probable contender to the title of worst film of all time?
Rowan Atkinson dancing with an annoying childish grin on his face in front of a mirror isn't my idea of comedy. The director obviously did or he wouldn't of shown this clip repeatedly throughout...much to my annoyance
I honestly didn't raise a smile once throughout this rubbish.
I wish i hadn't payed £5:20 to waste 90 minutes of my life i'll never get back, don't make the same mistake.
The three other people i went with couldn't agree more.
Go and see the movie if you're under 5 or mentally challenged
Solid Geometry (2002)
Wierd but worth a view
Channel 4 ran endless teaser trailers for this unique and compelling programme. Directed by Dennis Lawson (famous for his role as tie-fighter 'Wedge' in all three original STAR WARS MOVIES) this short film follows Ewan McGregor's life changing experiences and discent into almost madness.
This begins to esculate with the discovery of his Grandfathers old diaries. These are full of unusual tales and resolutions, which Ewan McGregor is asked to edit for his late Grandfather from beyond the grave.
Before long McGregor gets so wrapped up in the diaries that he begins to ignore and resent his girlfriend.
Half-way in to the story, McGregor reads of how his Grandfather created a devise which can send a human being into another dimension or something similar (either i missed something or its left for you decide).
It's impossible to say anymore without spoiling it for those who haven't seen it.
I didn't go to any special effort to watch this film, but i am very glad that (by chance) i did.
It was shot in a unique style and grabbed my attention right till the end.
I often judge how good a film is by how much i think or talk about it afterwards, with this in mind i must of really enjoyed it!
Really worth a viewing if you get the chance, just to have a chat about in the pub, if nothing else...
The Paper (1994)
1 dull December night
This is one of those movies that you may of heard of, but never really thought to yourself "oh, i would love to see that!". One dull December night when nothing else is on, the TV announcer comes on and introduces 'The Paper'...so i think to myself, why not?
Why not indeed, as i found 'The Paper' to be one of those magical films that fills you with warmth and generally lights up your day. As with most of my favourite films, i held no expectations for this movie, leading to an increased sense of enjoyment on watching the film.
The performances are all top-notch, with Michael Keaton giving his best ever.
If you can't find any decent current releases down at your local video shop...look around for 'The Paper'.
