F.Broadbent asks “DEAR ADAM, I AM CURIOUS TO FIND OUT IF ROD TAILOR IS STILL ALIVE AT THE MOMENT I AM WATCHING A FILM HE IS IN CALLED THE V.I.Ps CHEERIO FOR NOW.”
Tries too hard to be cool, just ended up annoying the feck out of me. Chris Evans & Brandon Routh save their scenes, the rest? No thanks.
A far better film than the original, even if it lacks the trashy sleaze of that version. Whilst the violence has been ramped up, I still find the original more harrowing (in its fully uncut form). It's an impressively shot made film, without being overly slick or polished. Great acting (good to see Tony Goldwyn again), cinematography and score. It's a rough trip but one worth taking.
A very smart and instantly likeable film with Clooney doing his thing better than ever. Vera Farmiga is an absolute knockout, both performance and aesthetically. I felt a genuine warmth to all the characters, despite their seemingly superficial lives, the ending I found genuinely touching. Great movie.
A pleasingly hard-nosed Western very much in the mould of Costner's Open Range. Both leads are in good form, Harris's direction is eye catching and the action has a realistic kick to it. Zellwegger looks comically ugly.
