Weekend cinema preview

What Just Happened?
Starring: Robert De Niro, Bruce Willis, Stanley Tucci, John Turturro, Kristen Stewart, Catherine Keener, Moon Bloodgood, Sean Penn, Michael Wincott, Robin Wright Penn
Director: Barry Levinson
A Hollywood producer struggles to get his film made amidst problems with cast, crew and corporate executives. That rare things these days, a Robert De Niro movie that actually looks pretty good.
IMDb rating: 7.9
My prediction: 4/5



Changeling
Starring: Angelina Jolie, Gattlin Griffith, John malkovich, Colm Feore
Director: Clint Eastwood
It's 1928, Los Angeles, and a young woman son goes missing. The police find a boy who they insist is her son, but she becomes convinced that he isn't. Based on a true story. Unusually for an Angelina Jolie film, she isn't what's attracting me to this. What is attracting me is director Clint Eastwood, who's reputation as a director just goes from strength to strength. Not a film I would otherwise choose to see, but word is that Jolie delivers an Oscar-worthy performance and that IMDb rating is hard to argue against.
IMDb rating: 8.1
My prediction: 4/5



Four Christmases
Starring: Vince Vaughn, Reese Witherspoon, Robert Duvall, Sissy Spacek, Jon Voight, Jon Favreau, Mary Steenburgen, Dwight Yoakam, Kristin Chenoweth, Colleen Camp
Director: Seth Gordon
A newlywed couple try to visit all four of their divorced parents on Christmas Day. Couple be crap, but the trailer did give me a few laughs and it's a quality cast.
IMDb rating: n/a
My prediction: 3/5



Le Silence De Lorna / The Silence Of Lorna
Starring: Arta Dobroshi, Jeremie Renier, Alban Ukaj
Directors: Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne
A Belgian immigrant tries to sell herself as a bride to a Russian looking to immigrate into Belgium and obtain a divorce from her drug addicted husband. The IMDb rating suggests this might be an interesting enough drama.
IMDb rating: 7.3
My prediction: 3/5



Flawless
Starring: Michael Caine, Demi Moore, Nathaniel Parker, Joss Ackland, Natalie Dormer
Director: Michael Radford
A caretaker and a company executive conspire to steal from their employer, a diamond company. Fairly standard-looking crime drama raised by the presence of Michael Caine. Demi Moore with an english accent seems curious casting. I note Natalie Dormer, so hot as Anne Boleyn in The Tudors is also on the cast and it's director by the guy who made 1984. All seems a bit inconsequential though.
IMDb rating: 6.8
My prediction: 3/5



Bihisht Faqat Baroi Murdagon / To Get To Heaven First You Have To Die
Starring: Khurshed Golibekov, Dinara Drukova, Maruf Pulodzoda
Director: Jamshed Usmonov
An impotent young man tries to overcome his problem by travelling to a big city and hooking up with a mafia thug. That could quite possibly be complete bollocks but I can't find out much about this film, not even a trailer.
IMDb rating: 6.8
My prediction: 3/5

Ano Una / Year Of The Nail
Starring: Eireann Harper, Diego Catano
Director: Jonas Cuaron
A love story between a Mexican teenager and an older American woman who meet one summer in Mexico. Unusual, slideshow-style film, that runs to just 78 minutes but looks like it could become tedious much sooner. Still, it is at least something fairly original. Director is the son of Alfonso Cuaron (Y Tu Mama Tambien, City Of Men).
IMDb rating: 6.1
My prediction: 2/5

Watched last night

Grand Designs Abroad: The Modernist Villa, Malaga - fantastic looking house in a stunning location, but I would have had some way of getting between the elements without having to go outside - 4/5

The Department Store: Peters, Huddersfield - beautifully observed - 5/5

E! News - thought I would give it a go, being a bit of a celebrity gossip whore, but its barely watchable. Each segment lasts about 20 seconds and has the depth of a baking tray. On the plus side, lots of attractive women :D - 3/5

Grand Designs Abroad: Maseria Impisi, Puglia - 4/5

4/5 and 5/5 rated films that I have seen, on UK TV channels today.

0105-0245 - The Counterfeiters (Sky Screen 2)

Watched recently

Spooks: Episode 7.6 - 4/5

Flight Of The Conchords: The Actor - 4/5

The Counterfeiters - 1944 and the broke Nazi regime attempts to forge vast amounts of British and American currency, using Jewish prisoners, to try and fund the war effort and destabilise the allies' economies. Interesting drama looking at an often overlooked story from the war that explores the dilemma of the Jewish prisoners who assisted the Nazis in return for better conditions. Unlike its peers such as The Pianist, Downfall and Schindler's List, this is quite a shot film at around 95 minutes and verily zips through the story. It feels lighter than those other films, probably because of the pace, but it doesn't shy away from showing the horrors of the time when appropriate - 4/5

The Daily Show: 20th November - 4/5

Prison Break: Quiet Riot - Jodi Lynn O'Keefe as a schoolgirl? We're liking that! - 4/5

Charlie Brooker's Screenwipe - why have I never watched this before? Funny as fuck. Brooker may possibly be the funniest guy around at the moment - 4/5

My Name Is Earl: Pilot - giving this another go, thanks to nightly re-runs on E4 and inspired by seeing Jaime Pressly on Letterman earlier this year - 4/5

The Devil's Whore: Episode 1 - 4/5

My Name Is Earl: Quit Smoking - 4/5

Body Of Lies - a CIA operative in the middle east (Leonardo DiCaprio) and his boss back in the US (Russell Crowe) attempt to track down an Al Qaeda leader with the help of the head of Jordanian intelligence (Mark Strong). Typically confident film from Ridley Scott, borrowing largely in style from his earlier Black Hawk Down. Unfortunately, the story isn't overly compelling, but it is heightened by good performances from all the central performers, most notably Strong as the measured, intelligent Hani - 3/5

Dragons' Den: Peter Jones' Story - 4/5

Heroes: It's Coming - hopefully, it is. Episode didn't start out too well, but it got its act toegether and it was nice to see the Pinehearst and Primatech factions finally coalescing. The show needs discipline, the lack of which is demonstrated by how Kristen Bell is allowed to come and go from the cast as she pleases. The more of her the better, to be honest, but such flexibility on the part of the producers doesn't give much faith that they have a coherent vision for the characters - 4/5

Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles: Goodbye To All That - LOL @ Cameron's bedtime story line - 4/5

Grey's Anatomy: Crash Into Me, Part 2 - Lexie is sweet... - 4/5

Lead Balloon: Panda - 4/5

Entourage: Play'n With Fire - 4/5

My Name Is Earl: Randy's Touchdown - 4/5

Have I Got A Bit More News For You - 4/5

The X Factor
So, farewell then Rachel. Despite improving greatly in the last couple of weeks, ultimately the public didn't take to her and, in truth, much if her singing was flat, despite her possessing undoubted vocal power. Take That's live performance was good, owed something to Coldplay.

Alexandra Burke - really rather good indeed. Effortless, in fact - 5/5

Ruth Lorenzo - looked good, gave a great performance, but can't survive much longer - 4/5

JLS - pretty poor performance that highlights only one of them can really sing. The judges have lost their heads over these guys and the public put them in their place. The sing-off was pretty good though, even if they did get cocky wih the lyrics - 2/5, 4/5

Rachel Hylton - average performance marred by the ridiculous acrobatics, storming sing-off - 4/5

Diana Vickers - as much as it pains me to say, I thought this was Diana's weakest performance so far. The backing vocals were way over the top - 3/5

Eoghan Quigg - hard to tell how good this was because his vocal limitations were drowned out by more OTT backing vocals, a huge choir and other diversions. Cheating, really - 2/5

After the initial performances we had the return of Same Difference. I still think Sarah's hot, in a vaguely psychopathic way, but the song was crap and the fact they were miming was profoundly lame and embarassing. Rhydian was Rhydian. 2/5 and 3/5 respectively.

Weekend cinema preview update

It appears that I managed to overlook the film Blindness from this week's cinema preview. I've now added it into the list, which can be viewed in full here.

Last week's X Factor

The public finally do the business and allow the judges to ditch Daniel. Huzzah!

The performances:

Daniel Evans - I actually enjoyed his opening number, but the sing-off was rudimentary - 4/5, 3/5

Alexandra Burke - delivers pretty much every week. Someone should give her a deal now because she's proven she's ready and will without doubt get a career out of this. In fact, it's likely that whoever wins the show, she'll be the most successful of the contestants in the long run - 4/5

JLS - I hate hate HATE medleys, so tacky, but they didn't screw up completely. The dancers' boots were far more interesting though - 3/5

Rachel Hylton - thought both her performances were good this week. Deserved to stay, but doesn't deserve to win - 4/5, 4/5

Eoghan Quigg - I don't care what or how he sings anymore, I hate his cherubic face and want him gone - 2/5

Diana Vickers - yay Diana! OK, admittedly her weakest performance, but you still cant't take your eyes off her. Well done to the public for sending her through to this week's show. Looked gorgeous - 4/5

Ruth Lorenzo - yup, that'll do, but she won't win - 4/5

Leona Lewis - OK, not a contestant, but f00k, what a performance! Taxi for Leon Jackson, cheers - 5/5



Tomorrow night, the theme is Take That. Hmm...

Watched recently

Lordy, I haven't posted this stuff in an age. Here goes...

Dragons' Den: Deborah Meaden's Story - naff taste, a regular affliction of the rich - 3/5

Grand Designs: The Violin Factory, Waterloo - very, very impressive conversion - 5/5

Apparitions: Episode 1.1 - new BBC drama about an exorcist priest. Quite gruesome at the end and a vaguely interesting premise, but too long. Would have worked better in 45 minutes - 3/5

The Daily Show: 12th November - 4/5

Grand Designs: Customised German Kit House, Surrey - an aestetically pleasing Huf Haus, but rather too much glass to make it comfortable (for me) to live in - 4/5

Entourage: Pie - Stellan Skarsgaard! Fuckin' A! - 4/5

The Daily Show: 13th November - 4/5

Fringe: The Curve - 4/5

TV's Naughtiest Blunders - 4/5

QI: Family - 4/5

Spooks: Episode 7.5 - 4/5

The Baader Meinhof Complex - film charting the story of German terrorist group the Red Army Faction, which carried out a series of robberies, bombings, kdnappings and other acts through the 1960s and 70s, ostensibly with the aim of overthrowing capitalism. Highly accomplished, fast-paced and absorbing thriller that absolutely justifies its lengthy running time. Great perfomances throughout too and Johann Wokalek is gorgeous - 5/5

Flight Of The Conchords: The Fans - 3/5

Breaking Bad: A No-Rough-Stuff-Type Deal - end of the first, strike-truncated season and on balanced, it's safe to say it's justified its renewal. Incidentally, on the subject of renewals, news from the US today that Pushing Daisies, Dirty Sexy Money and Eli Stone have all been axed. I only got to see the first episode of Pushing Daisies, thanks to ITV's fuck up in the summer, but want to give it a go on DVD. I tried both the others for a few episodes, but truth is they did suck and deserved to go. Will someone please cast Natasha Henstridge in something good? - 4/5

Political Capital: 16th November - 4/5

Underbelly: The Black Princes - think The Sopranos, but based on true events and set in Melbourne and you have vague idea of what this show's about. It's not the same quality as The Sopranos, presumably down to a smaller budget, but it's enthralling nonetheless - 5/5

Prison Break: The Legend - looks like this is the last season of Prison Break, which is a shame, but the plotline is daft and, in retrospect, the show should have disappeared after the second season. That said, I'm still enjoying it, so what do I know - 4/5

Heroes: Villains - 3/5

Grand Designs: An Idiosynchratic Home, Dorset - 4/5

Charles At 60: The Passionate Prince - documentary film following Prince Charles around for a year as he does various good things for his charities. Moderately interesting insight into the prince from which he emerges unscathed - 3/5

Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles: Allison From Palmdale - my love affair with Summer Glau continues. Her performance as a terminator is splendidly observed, just watch how she walks - 4/5

Lead Balloon: Gas - 4/5

Grey's Anatomy: Crash Into Me - 4/5

Entourage: Seth Green Day - 4/5

Steven Fry In America: Pacific - would have been better if it had run over a couple more weeks. Everything passed by too quickly - 3/5

The Daily Show: 17th November - 3/5

Fringe: In Which We Meet Mr Jones - my weekly spot-the-witness fix. Just keeps getting better and better - 4/5

John From Cincinnati: His Visit, Day One - cancelled by HBO at the end of its first 10-episode season, this 'surf noir' drama from Deadwood creator David Milch could possibly be the most original TV drama since Twin Peaks - 4/5

Grand Designs: The Modernists Sugar Cube, Sussex - 4/5

Grand Designs: The 19th Century Sandstone House, Edinburgh - 4/5

The Daily Show: 18th November - 3/5

America's Next Top Model: For Those About To Walk, We Salute You - fuck knows what that episode title's about. Anyway, Stacy-Ann's gone and that's fair enough, but Fatima didn't even take part in the shoot because of her Somali consulate appointment, so if I were Stacy-Ann, I would feel aggrieved. Since when did Somalia have consulates anyway? The country doesn't even have a functioning government! - 4/5

Grand Designs: The Curved House, Clapham - 4/5

The Department Store: Milner's, Leyburn - 3/5

Underbelly: The Sorcerer's Apprentice - 4/5

Weekend cinema preview

Blindness
Starring: Julianne Moore, Mark Ruffalo, Alice Braga, Maury Chaykin, Danny Glover, Gael Garcia Bernal, Sandra Oh
Director: Fernando Meirelles
A disease that causes almost instantaneous blindness spreads through a city, incapacitating 90% of the population. As the blind are hearded into quarantine, a doctor, apparently immune to the disease, pretends to be blind so as to stay with her husband. An intriguing premise, excellent leads and a quality director make this top of the list this week.
IMDb rating: 7.2
My prediction: 4/5



Body Of Lies
Starring: Leonardo DiCaprio, Russell Crowe, Mark Strong
Director: Ridley Scott
Two CIA agents and the head of Jordanian intelligence attempt to take out a islamist terrorist group. Typically muscular action-thriller from Ridley Scott, the kind of film he seems to be able to churn out effortlessly. Looks like part Spy Game (directed by his brother, Tony) and part Black Hawk Down.
IMDb rating: 7.6
My prediction: 4/5



Choke
Starring: Sam Rockwell, Kelly Macdonald, Anjelica Huston
Director: Clark Gregg
A sex-addicted conman plays for his elderly mother's care fees by pretending to choke on food and elliciting the sympathy of those who 'save' him. Based on a novel by Fight Club author Chuck Palahniuk. While it's clearly not in the same league as Fight Club, its progeny does mean it deserves some attention, as does the fact it stars Leslie Bibb's boyfriend, Sam Rockwell.
IMDb rating: 7.3
My prediction: 4/5



Waltz With Bashir
Voiced by: Ari Folman, Ron Ben-Yishai
A former Israeli soldier, plagued by a recurring nightmare and memory loss talks to old friends and comrades to try and piece together his experiences of the first Lebanon war in the early 1980s. Critically lauded and impressive-looking animation, my only real concern is that its politics and mine might not be on the same page.
IMDb rating: 8.1
My prediction: 4/5



Quarantine
Starring: Jennifer Carpenter, Steve Harris, Jay Hernandez
Director: John Erick Dowdle
A TV news crew find themselves trapped in a quarantined apartment building when a virus outbreak turns its residents in bloodthirsty killers. Another addition to the recovered video camera footage genre that includes The Blair Witch Project and Cloverfield. Wasn't expecting much, but the trailer makes me think it might be a mindless little chiller and the presence of Dexter's Jennifer Carpenter is as good a reason as any to give it a go.
IMDb rating: 6.3
My prediction: 3/5



'Tis Autumn: The Search For Jackie Paris
Director: Raymond De Felitta
Documentary examining the life of the late, unheralded jazz vocalist Jackie Paris. Looks like an interesting story because he disappeared for decades and was thought to be dead, but as it turned out he wasn't. However jazz isn't my favourite style of music.
IMDb rating: 7.6
My prediction: 3/5



Conversations With My Gardener
Starring: Daniel Auteuil, Jean-Pierre Darroussin
Director: Jean Becker
An artist from Paris returns to his childhood home and hires a gardener, a former schoolfriend. Couldn't find an english-subtitled trailer, so I don't really know what's going on, but it looks like an amiable enough light comedy-drama.
IMDb rating: 6.9
My prediction: 3/5



My Best Friend's Girl
Starring: Dane Cook, Kate Hudson, Alec Baldwin, Jason Biggs
Director: Howard Deutch
A guy hires his best friend to take out his ex-girlfriend on a crap date in an attempt to show her what she's missing out on. G-d, that sounded crap even as I typed it.
IMDb rating: 5.0
My prediction: 2/5



Yuvvraaj
Starring: Salman Khan, Katrina Kaif, Anil Kapoor, Zayed Khan
Director: Subhash Ghai
This week's Bollywood release, I haven't a clue what it's about. The trailer is hopeless.
