  • Any Questions for Ben? 2012

    Watched 11 Feb, 2012

    This film is great. Something I will comment on was the share number of Melbourne CBD/environs aerial shots used in scene transitions, I found these a little over the top, and I'd love to know if this was 1) I'm not used to seeing the city I live in show up in films (Holla Christchurch), 2) There were just a lot of these shots, 3) People who live in LA hate this or 4) if it was just me. Bonus points for an excellently comic "deleted" scene that runs alongside the credit.

  • Training Day 2001

    Rewatched 14 Feb, 2012

    More than ten years after this film was released it stands up well (with only the odd pre iPhone Nokias dragging us back to 2001). Shout outs to Kiwi Cliff Curtis playing one of the Mexican gangstas. Denzel's character and portrayal is excellent.

  • The Way Back 2010

    Watched 12 Feb, 2012

    Didn't find this engaging, though Ed Harris can't help but be great. They walk across the Gobi desert! But I didn't really care. Farrell's character (and his decision) was something I did care about.

  • Chronicle 2012

    Watched 11 Feb, 2012

    Solid film, although we all found the ending a little weak. Admittedly, I don't have a better answer to how else they could have ended it. Glad it wasn't 100% POV found footage, that would have grated.
