Harry Brown
Starring Michael Caine as a ex-marine now pensioner living on a crime riddled estate somewhere in the south of England.
Tracks how a man turns vigilante after losing the last thing close to him, and swearing revenge on the thugs that did it.
It's got no comedic undertones, even if a few lines here and there raise a chuckle. It's got full on drug taking at one point and it's pretty brutal in it's delivery of violence. It's also a fairly accurate showing of just how bad the worst estates in the UK are.
It's also a very good film. Michael Caine is fantastic, but the supporting cast are also pretty damn good.

The Bridge
Documentary about all the people who killed themselves jumping off the golden gate bridge in 2004.
Very interesting, I thought it was nice that the people who topped themselves had something said about them.

Just watched this, completely stupid, utterly pointless, moderately amusing.Baliame wrote:Gamer
Michael Hall does some great parts, shooty parts are satisfying, there are occasionally dropped tits as well. The whole thing was as plotholey though as a Harry Potter movie, and sometimes there are just overwhelmingly unnecessary parts. Overall, not bad. 6.999999...998/10.
Plot made more sense than MW2

Bruno
Remember how Borat managed to combine silly/gross humour with a vicious, satirical edge that highlighted the ignorance and prejudices of many people? Well Bruno is nothing like that. The whole film relies on 'shock' faaabulous gags - there is no subtlety to it whatsoever. Only bit that made me properly laugh was the redneck Yanks crying (literally tears of anguish) at the sight of two men tonguing each other at a cage fighting event.
4/10
