I saw Calvary with Brendan Gleeson yesterday. It was really good, and the perfect movie for him. It perfectly showed off all his best qualities, the power and the kindness that you see just looking at him. The ending
Spoiler: show
was fucking shite. Ruined the movie for me until I forced myself to forget it. Having the murderer be the least developed character in town, and the one that someone else had vouched for as non-violent, was both a cheap and obvious twist. And actually doing what he did was pointless and felt just plain cruel.

Watched 'Dredd' today. It was actually pretty good. Great action. A lot more gore than I anticipated.

maybe it's because i'm sick and didn't feel like nit picking, but i didn't think the lone ranger was bad at all...i'm surprised how universally panned it was

Just rewatched Cannibal Holocaust for an upcoming podcast episode. That movie is a goddamn masterpiece, an experience. I'm convinced it's one of the deepest, most challenging movies ever made.

But was it rewarding?

Great film rangi.

I fell asleep long before the end of tree of life. So what, it's like koyaanisquatsi but wit a bare storyline?

I'm unlikely to try it again. Though it looked amazing.

Went and saw Into The Storm over the weekend. Pretty much what you'd expect from this type of movie, but it was enjoyable.

Watched the 2nd Jurrasic Park last night as I hadn't watched it in many years. There were many bits in there where it looked like the animators just went 'Meh - that's good enough I guess' with the dinosaur animation.

It's still better than the third one. I'll go and watch the fourth when it comes out, but I'm holding much hope that it'll be good

Read somewhere that they're remaking the Jurassic park films but following the books more closely. Any truth to that?
