What is it with text-speak? by trouserpress	Oct 11th, 2004 07:25:14 AM
Text messaging is encouraging illiteracy. Just look at our first reviewer for confirmation.
'remember is guns are not as popular over here and besides this by DannyOcean01	Oct 11th, 2004 09:22:19 AM
Yes, we are more concerned with collecting the Pokemon cards, where such cards as Idiotmon, Turdforbrainsmon and textspeakingretardomonkeymanmo n are the hardest and wickedest things to find. Jesus, the reason guns are hard to find has something to do with the gun laws. Try poking your head out from your movie adled existence and educate yourself.
Motorcyle Diaries by santos kauffman	Oct 11th, 2004 06:25:11 PM
Obviously Bernal is talented, and he services Salles' interpretation of Guevara decently enough in Diaries. Unfortunately Salles and whoever contributed to the script focus almost solely on Guevara's empathy and sensitivity, and largely ignore the egotistical penchant for defiance that is obvious when reading about his youth. Benicio Del Toro has that air of mischievousness that was obvious in the real Guevara and disappointinly absent in Motorcycle Diaries.
Guns not common??? by Wyrdy the Gerbil	Oct 12th, 2004 09:26:39 AM
tell that to the family of the sixteen year old girl killed a driveby in Birmingham or the two girls in a car last week who were both shot ...hell drug dealers and others have no problem buying weapons in the UK
no guns in the deep-country? by gunstar	Oct 13th, 2004 06:06:16 AM
What? if anything there are more guns in the country, oh and the film was set in a small town, hardly 'deep country' whatever the f**k that is. BTW if there are no guns in the 'deep country' hwy did Gary stretch's character have a hunting rifle? Great film though. Though nobody seems to have mentioned the great use of sound effects and music throughout the film.
DEAD MAN's SHOES - I cannot praise this movie enough... you lot by workshed	Oct 20th, 2004 06:02:55 PM
Saw it Sunday night at UGC in Sheffield, England... I've seen about 150 films so far this year and this is a masterpiece. Considine deserves an oscar, not just for his acting but for his co-writing of the screenplay (with SHane Meadows). 'Dead Man's Shoes' puts Meadows into the Scorcese league. One of the most violent films of all-time but all the better for it. Just wait for the bit with 'the kettle' and a rather full suitcase. The greatest low-budget film ever. 10/10.
