I came down with a huge coughing, sneezing, burning eyes, dribbly nose kind of a flu last week.
This translated into:
- Catching up on all the movies currently running on satellite, I do mean all, I watch RV and the Lindsay Lohan one too…..
I went through three whole boxes of tissues; I have a new appreciation for tissue with cream in it, which is well worth the extra $3 - Flipping through oodles of porn, convinced that I could write better scripts or at the very least suggest more interesting positions and/or grunts. (A possible career choice for the future should the whole 9 to 5 thing not work out)
Movie Reviews:
The Departed
I really do love Martin Scorcese films. They satisfy my ‘would be’ gangsta….Italian mafiosis, inner self. The departed was overall a good movie. Yet the end, the grand finale, was sort of silly. It’s like good ole Martin got really tired after a year or so of filming, and said, scratch it, I fed up of fixing all the holes, fed up of thinking clever little ploys, fed up I tell you………..and then he wrote the ending. Anyone else seen it?
Lucky Number Slevin
This movie is all the things a good movie, is supposed to be. Smart, great wall paper in all the scenes, edgy, nifty story, and I loved Lucky Liu’s character. Especially the scene where she asks him out on a date, the subtle change, loved it, who knew Lucy Liu could act?
Syrianna
Complex movie that was in some ways a little simplistic in their potrayals of the benevolent leader. Yet I thought was excellent for it’s portrayal of domestic worker’s in oil rich nations. The movie aptly shows the plight of the poor Islamic Immigrant workers, who work in the most pitiful conditions, and who invariably becomes the easiest target for those idiotic martyr campaigns. It is sad that this is the only movie I have ever seen that mentions them.
