I still haven't seen it but I lost a lot of respect for Kevin Smith with his attitude to the reviews of the film. ""Writing a nasty review for Cop Out is akin to bullying a retarded kid" and complaining that critics should have to pay to see his movies. Awful stuff What doesn't kill you makes you stronger... |

Mixed bag at the weekend....THIS CONTAINS SPOILERS Paranormal Activity 4. A confused and confusing mess, with two standout moments for me, the much lauded kinect sequence made my eyes hurt so f to that!!! Will still watch the 3rd, but sheeeesh, diminishing returns etc......AAAnyway Argo. Look, on a purely human level twas a decent, emotionally involving tale, but the CIA aren't "good guys" by any stretch of the imagination IMO. Malice In Wonderland. Dyer Time!!! Odd wee thing, only watched half because I noticed a Lichtenstein doc on BBC4, so a bit cheeky, but I liked what I'd seen, so will rewatch and put up a proper review on the appropriate thread cough cough geezer... Killer Joe. Liked this curious blend of Tennessee Williams and Jim Thompson (it's theatrical origins are obvious, but decently rounded out), haven't had much time for MM in the past, but this is certainly a singular performance, Recommended!! Wreck It Ralph. Too formulaic in structure for me, not a patch on TS3, regardless what Wossy says in the ads, some nice references but was too two dimensional for my tastes

It was just the crass "Typical Kevin Smith Sodomy Jokes" in that scene that I found unnecessary and which jarred with the rest of the film. That said, I'm going to buy Red State now as I don't own it and fancy seeing it again! |

I think what really makes RED STATE stand out is michael parks. He's incredible in the film, simply brilliant. I thought the end was a little bit of a cop-out (pardon the pun) but its a satisfying movie overall and worth watching for parks performance. His sermon is chilling and powerfully delivered and hopefully one day he'll get an oscar for something. I've liked his work since twin peaks.
