Great acting, good script but don't expect action.

Good suspence though.

8/10 ;)

Phillip Seymour Hoffman and Streep are wonderful in it.

Enjoyed Rock'n'rolla, not sure if it has been mentioned in previous pages but I liked it.

99% of people won't see The Combination, a new Australian film about Lebanese gangs in Sydney's west.

For the remaining 1% considering forking out their hard-earned dough/easy money on it...

DON'T!

It's an abomination.

And that's being kind...

Saw the Aussie Film "Restraint" recently, was pretty solid for some Aussies.

Iron Man was pretty awesome.

Jaws

On TV again the other night.

Quite simply THE MOST ENTERTAINING MOVIE EVER MADE!


Interiors

Woody Allen's first 'serious' film.

Undergraduate and pretentious.

Yet strangely watchable.


Gerry

Made during Gus Van Sant's 'up yours narrative' phase which culminated in the terminal Kurt Cobain inspired Last Days.

Two blokes walk for 90 minutes.

The End.


Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back

No excuse for this piece of crap.

Somehow Kevin Smith is still allowed to make movies.

Just saw it ZZ, Micky Rourke was awesome. I have seen "Milk" too but thought Rourke was better then Penn and deserved the Oscar.

Tomei...well, top performance as well....in more ways than one!!! ;)
