Cry for the indians

I reckon, this guy has written a million books. And it took the million books to get it going. This was well fucking readable.

I can't wear my ring or I won't get laid on the trip

I travelled across the world with Ewan McGregor and Charley Boorman. I put the series on in the morning and finished it before evening. Once again, I saw it all; The Road of Bones, Igor, beautiful Siberia, the almost impassable roads, the impassable roads, the love of tarmac, the accidents, balls, cow balls, sheep balls, and goat balls, it all. Loving it.

Strong animals know when your hearts are weak

Indie. Not bad indie - a child, something-10-year old Quvenzhané Wallis steals the show and otherwise too - despite the enviromental issues - the film's undeniably beautiful. Still, hopelessly indie.

Little monkeys through a keyhole

Not so long ago I bought the Charles R. Jackson novel The Lost Weekend because I heard so many good things about it. I haven't read it yet, but I heard there's a movie based on it, directed by Billy Wilder no less. And what a movie. Ray Milland as the hopeless alcoholic writer Don Birnam is one of the best performed characters I've ever witnessed and it's brilliant in the sense that at the same time you are disgusted by and craving for some of that rye whiskey the movie some marvellously revolves around.

Chance is a real bitch

This would have been so fucken cool in the Eighties or the early Nineties, but after Quentin Tarantino (who Sushi Girl shamelessly rips off) and umpteenth number of torture porn crap, this shit does not stand. Liked the ending though.

Branded by the dead

A double feature of two Eighties Finnish horror movies Merkitty and Painajainen, both directed by Ismo Sajakorpi. I'm afraid I only had the strenght and interest to watch the former. Amateur fuckshit.

Riding the Godzilla

Absolute rubbish. Seeing it was enough wasting of my time thank you very much.

Guilty of romance

A Japanese serial killer movie. The characters are a bit wacky to say the least. Overly long but otherwise alright.

Kill everyone who loves you

I kept waiting for something to happen, things catching fire, either funny or drastic turns of events (or weird or cool), but none of that happened.

Tip ot the iceberg

Some of the scenes were damn amazing, top-notch stuff, especially at the beginning, but the movie wasn't a tight package, it got wilder and crazier as the minutes got by.

Coffee and vodka

Aki Kaurismäki probably at his most laconic. Not his best work, a bit outdated by now, but a short one with a few proper laughs.

You'll never walk alone

An orphan travels through Europe - to Istanbul - to witness the 2005 Champions League Final Liverpool vs. AC Milan. And we should be weeping and crying, crying and weeping all the way.

The problem that causes all the other problems

Ace Ventura director Tom Shadyac's take on humanity, its greed and turmoil. Some great thinkers (Thom Hartmann, Desmond Tutu, Noam Chomsky, David Suzuki et al.) speak their mind. The running time of 1:17 hardly scratches the surface, but there are never enough of these documentaries.

Faith is a house with many rooms

Amazing. The story immediately took me for a ride, didn't let go and I'm sure it lingers on me further on. I once started the Yann Martel novel, dropped it as I'm good at dropping books halfway, but now - after seeing this fucker - I probably need to read it through. Marvellous film.

Vampires cannot kill their own kind

The only catch of this is that there's this guy who is running for president while hunting down the creatures of the night, and his name is Abraham Lincoln.

Without them you feel nothing

I reckon, this is the spin-off to the This Is England -movie. And because I don't remember much what happened in the movie, don't remember shit of the past of these characters, it was a bit difficult to follow. But luckily otherwise it stood on its own. Well, a few prolonged scenes, but absolutely fantastic acting anyways.

Art is the only thing one leaves behind

Nothing new. Physically challenged's and a ghetto rascal's worlds collide. Won Oscars, these. But it's been done a great many times already. Shit-packed with clichés; black and white, young and old, rich and poor, good and evil.

An eternity in an hour

Hundreds of PS3 games are flying by and these days I try to grab the ones experts have already approved. I’m such a closet nerd. This was fantastic.

Our law is liberty

Quite near everything associated outside of U.S. of A was dirty and uncool. And if it wasn't, it was indifferent. Still, this is gripping television. In a way, maybe a bit too perfect. You know, everything is too tidy, the houses are in perfect condition, everything is clean, they look like dollhouses and people are like puppets. It's a major concern in most of TV dramas these days, just about everything is spotless, looking photoshopped. It get gets dusty only when you step outside the comfort zone of U.S.A.

Licence to be an asshole

LAPD working on cases. A fellow officer gets stabbed in the eye and it's just another day in the office, something to joke about. Supercops Jake Gyllenhaal and Michael Pena even have the time to work as fire fighters and make movies too.

Wargasms

First I though this was a slow-burner, but two hours later it hadn't ignited. Not wholly bad, cool and clever film making at best of times, but shoulda been edited better and coldly dropped a few indifferent characters out of the picture.

Drinking blood from a boot

There was kind of a proper old-school vibe here somewhere. A very modern techno-thriller, but harked back to the yesteryear with cool deductive reasoning and hard-ass action sewn just at the right places. I don’t always meet eye to eye with Tom Cruise or Lee Child's Jack Reacher novels for that matter, but I want to see more of this franchise.

Every man carries a badge

In the L.A. Confidential ballpark, but this one is a little bit silly with stupid fuckings about and with an aftertaste that everything was done without proper care and preparation. The set-up was nice and the movie, no doubt, looked the part, but initially offered nothing but boys-with-shooting-guns, no script to speak of. On top of everything, the characters were fucking cartoonish.

The blind and deaf citizens of Sweden

People are dying like flies in the Swedish underworld. The sequel. Really well done as a matter of fact. Quite near as good as Nicolas Winding Refn's Pusher trilogy.

Take strangers hand

A standard issue bleak British drama with the usuals like IRA, terrorism and espionage, and bit of an awkward romance. It's been done a million times before, having Clive Owen, Gillian Anderson and Aidan Gillen in the ranks doesn't change anything.
