Life's been a bit quiet on the film front lately...stupid uni sucking my life away!
Watched The Weather Man this morning as procrastination though. I usually find Nicholas Cage annoying for some reason, but quite enjoyed the film though. Makes you think about grown up life and all that, especially as I'm about to leave the uni bubble myself.
Managed to finally see the Social Network as well, and really enjoyed it. In fact it was so good that it didn't even feel like two hours long, doesn't happen often. Speaking of Jesse Eisenberg (kind of), anyone seen Adventureland? Worth a watch?
I just watched Incendiary. Has anyone else seen it? I thought it was a bit rubbish. Interesting to make a film on the topic of terrorism, but to make it ridiculously unrealistic and a little confusing at times was a mistake.
Michelle Williams' London accent was really impressive, though!
Oh yeah, I saw You Will Meet A Tall Dark Stranger last night. Really liked it, only negative was Naomi Watts who I thought was terrible. But definitely a winner from Woody Allen this time, he's been so hit and miss for the past ten years.

He's been hit and miss since Hannah and Her Sisters, tbh, and arguably earlier. His only good films of the last decade were probably Match Point and Vicky Cristina Barcelona. Still, it's good to hear he's back on track, if the film is indeed as good as you claim.
Watch Memento, then Inception... then Southland Tales (a movie I still don't really understand, it's trippy but not in an intelligent way, it's just confusing) and your mind will asplode
Are you sure those movies can make your mind 'asplode'?
Watch Lost Highway, Mulholland Drive and Inland Empire and your mind will ... well there are no words.
Figuratively anyway, like the way I felt just seconds after getting out of my seat at the cinema when inception finished, just like..... woah
haha, sounds nice - btw The Rock and Sarah Michelle Gellar are in Southland tales if you haven't seen it.. tis quite funny too.
