Thoughts on films that passed through theatres recently
Dark Shadows and the trailer deception:
That's how I felt |
A bloody mess (not much of the red stuff though)
2/10

The Raid – Death by a thousand cuts/smashes/pummels/slices etc.
It's all fluffy really |
Set almost exclusively in a run down, drug-ridden tower block and full of explosive martial art set-pieces, actual explosions and gruesome deaths by way of snapping, knifing, axing, shooting, bottling and more, The Raid is not easy viewing. But it is worth experiencing at least once, particularly if you have a penchant for inventive death and destruction.
Spectacular to experience, but not easy to swallow – a gloriously bloody mess (lots of the red stuff)
8/10

Ted:
They didn't get the jokes either |
While some of the jokes and physical humour made me laugh, I left the cinema feeling rather low. Most of the audience fell about the floor laughing though, so what do I know?
