And how many Americans are involved in crime at any level?
I always appreciate your intelligent comment, (and corrections!)...thanks.
IT: Chapter 2.
Knives Out (Rian Johnson, 2019)
An entertaining way to spend a couple of hours not worrying about the mortgage, Boris Johnson or the latest complaint from America's No 1 Liar about light-bulbs and the number of times Americans flush their toilets.
References abound, from Agatha Christie to Game of Thrones, from Hitchcock to CSI, and there is some sort of crackle and fizz to the script which is well performed by Jamie Lee Curtis and Don Johnson in particular. I am not sure if Daniel Craig has mastered a Southern Accent or if he intended to, but he is ok and unlike Southern Gentlemen, does not shave.
The film tries to match Wes Anderson's snap, crackle and pop films and fails, indeed, one wonders if Anderson would have done a better job. But hey, it was ok, and I am not complaining about the £4.99 ($6.56) it cost to buy a ticket, though the Vue chain may want to review the tea they use for customers, as the tea I bought was tasteless. How hard can it be?
The Iron Lady.
Just saw MIDSOMMAR. I really enjoyed it and I'm looking forward to whatever else Ari Aster delivers in the horror field because I also loved HEREDITARY.
The Irishman (Martin Scorsese, 2019)
at the beginning of his career Scorsese made a film- Mean Streets- about local mafiosi and wannabe mafiosi that was funny and tragic, fast and fluent. At the end of his career Scorsese makes a film about the guys at the top, grim and inevitable, slow and garbled. That it concerns real people from history- Frank Sheeran and Jimmy Hoffa- does not add credibility or depth as the claims made, on the assassinations of JFK and Hoffa, are either not true, or have not been verified as true. The overwhelming theme, of loyalty and betrayal is so embedded in Mafia tales as to be predictable here, but the film, with a stodgy, repetitive script, becomes a miserable three and a half hours and was, without doubt a waste of my time.
If this is Scorsese's last film, he went out with a whimper, not a bang. At least I did not have to pay for it seeing it on someone else's Netflix account.
Ella Hollywood and Daisy Tailor have awsome sex in this movie! A must see for shemale fans!!
