All the best from Fredrik

The Departed (HD-DVD) - Fast paced, ultra violent and a gratuitous display of McIntosh HiFi. Almost a scene-for-scene remake of Infernal Affairs but missing the scene in the HiFi shop comparing the sound of interconnect cables. The makers of this version probably thought this was too unrealistic; nobody in real life would do something like that.

Children Of Men :
bit of a depressing future vision with a glimmer of hope at the end. Nominated for a Bafta for best cinematography, I think.

Tuxedo

With subtitles in Polish, which only added to the hilarity, as I am begining to be able to read and understand the frail translations!

Silly, if you have a short sense of humour, but a side cracking laugh!

'Snakes on a plane'

The good old 'Killer Tomatoes Are Attacking' genre is reborn combined with 'Air Force one'. It's actually rather good, fun and exciting, probably because they don't take themselves particulary serious!

You're enjoyment should be continued as the team have agreed to SOAP 2 and 3.

You are kidding right? I saw SOAP and one was more than enough! It was fun as Johan says ut that's it! Mind you, any system that will allow 6 Police Academy movies to be perpetrated is capable of anything!

Yes! As sequels use to improve on the original...

True Lies....

Forgotten what a good "Bond" Arnie made
Really good filmic transfer on the DVD too...

Perhaps The Rock after lunch to see Mr Connery playing another pseudo-Bond Smile

casino royale i thought it was agood film, not the james bond we all know, dts soundtrack was ok as well,, not bad for under £9 for a reg 3,which is released around a month before the reg 1 or 2 editions.

Finished Series5 of "24" last evening. Addictive viewing! I defy anyone to watch just one episode at a sitting! There are a few plot quibbles but generally very well constructed and put together.
I guess Series6 dvd will be out at the end of the year. Can't wait.

Sunday night watched 'Brokeback mountain'. Apart from the first 30 minutes or so when we couldn't understand a word of mumbling the film was an excellent insight into a narrow minded societies non acceptance of alternative relationships. Essentially a love story between two men, one clearly gay, the other seemingly more heterosexual. One guy very open to travel, more open minded, rich and the other poor, limited communication, narrow view on life but a very decent human being. Fascinating as the story develops how their separate lives and their time together intertwine.

Sad but excellent. A Beautifully shot and brave film from Ang Lee.

I saw Pot Luck (or Auberge espagnole, L' / Casa de locos, Una / Euro Pudding / The Spanish Apartment depending on the country you live in...) the other night. Good and fun, but I think the sequel 'The Russian Dolls' was quite a bit better.
