Kibo …

Quite funny, especially for a George Clooney comedy.  Some side-boob and naked arse.  Absolutely no shit got really blowed up.

Viggo Mortensen looks rough - sorry ladies - but his performance in this is excellent, as it that of the boy, Kodi Smit-McPhee.  It’s pretty depressing, and I still don’t know what happened.  Absolutely nothing got really blowed up.

What did make it special, was the late arrival of three noisy Eastern European tossers, one of whom made phone calls during the film.  Both I and the guy behind me told them to STFU and take the call somewhere else.  We rock.

I just don’t get it.  To me it looks like nothing more than an enormous iPod Touch with a relatively low resolution screen. It’s of no viable use in the real world.  It’s just a media player, like the various flavours if iPod and iPhone*. Continue Reading »

Nothing short of breath-taking.  See it.  See it in 3D.  Mindblowing visuals, and I really enjoyed the story.  Lots of side-boob, too.  And loads of stuff gets really blowed up.

Me: Go on then, but commando crawl.
Guy One: OK.

Guy One then set off, commando crawling out of the office…

Jack-in-a-Box in Eagle Tower is pedalling this crap.  It must be illegal to sell this in the UK because the ingredients are not in English.  It also tastes bloody awful. Continue Reading »
