Severance
Bit stupid, but pretty fun.
Some kind of further explanation would have been nice.

Zodiac (2007)

Such a great, often looked-over film, and Fincher's best work in my opinion. It has an incredible restraint that I think his other movies lack. A grand, haunting epic combining obsession and culture. Some really great performances and some of the best digital photography yet, too.

Creation (2010)

It's partly biographical, partly fictionalized account of Charles Darwin & how he copes with the grief after untimely death of his eldest daughter, Annie, by plunging into his revolutionary work The Origin of Species. Quite sad & slow but a pretty well made & acted feature.

A 26 year old actress plays a 15 year old girl who pops acid at her first party - soon shes on uppers/downers/sidewaysers etc all the time recording her teenage whining in her diary...Bill Shatner with tash and glasses says he'll play her dad if he gets top billing despite less than 10m ins of screem time..Andy Griffith plays a priest and and Robert Carradine appears as a teenage acid head..

This is based on the real life diaries of an anonymous teenage girl who died of a drug overdose back in the 60's (by based I mean totally made up) and was at one stage required reading for every 12 year old...

Lucky Number Slevin (2006). This case of mistaken identity will keep the viewer guessing until the end. At one point i was all full of myself having figured something out, only to find that i was sucker punched by falling for the bait. The biggest complaint would be the beginning is a bit fast paced. Learn to keep up people! This is a witty, dark, at times cute, and ultimately stylish flick for the guy that can keep up. The cast was sublime, and everybody did their jobs perfectly. Lead Josh Hartnett killed his part, keeping everybody guessing 'till the end. The dialogue was fun and witty, the story was awesome, and the direction was great. The cinematography was at time playful and then frenetic, especially when increasing the body count. Don't worry for those that cannot keep up, the ending will literally be spelled out you. The only thing that was not up to par was the forced Hollywood ending. But we can live with that when everything else was so freaking grand. Ashe.

You were flicking through the channels and fell for the trap as well? What was it? Film4?

Okay, you think that was bad, I recently saw:

1969

Starring Robert Downey Jr. & Keifer Sutherland as two young hippies telling the whole story of the troubled 60s. Bruce Dern & Mariette Hartley as dad & mom, with Winona Ryder as little sis. From the same guy who brought you On Golden Pond. All was not golden this time. Rather sappy & superficial.
