Nightwatch

The next time I see Brendan I'm going to smack him. This was...gah. It starts out ok enough. Goofy medieval flashback with expository voice-over. Sets up for a Modern Horror/Fantasy setting with a Nightwatch (good supernaturals) and Daywatch (bad supernaturals) patrolling each others' community for rule breakers. Sounds cool? Sure. Except not much happens. Theres a pile of camera tricks and other attempts to artificially create a dark moodiness. Not that it needs much with the urban landscape typical in Russia. Oh yeah, this is a Russian movie...

Anyway back to the nothing really happening. You have a vamp girlfriend who wants revenge for her accidently killed vamp crook boyfriend. A mysterious kid. And a cursed woman. The last of which has no point other than to inflict most of the shots of massive numbers of crows and shit flying around a building...

And then you get to the final battle. The chapter is even called Rooftop Battle. Except all it is, is the "hero" having flashbacks to the opening fight scene. And then you get some kind of Negative Luke Skywalker rejection scene and an abrubt and UTTERLY ANNOYING LETDOWN OF AN ENDING. I'm not happy with Brendan or anyone else who recomended this thing. Not happy at all...

Imagine Me & You

Girl (Piper Perabo/Rachel) marries Guy (Matthew Goode/Heck). Girl meets Girl2 (Lena Headey/Lucy). Girl2 becomes friends with Girl/Guy. Girl falls for Girl2. Girl kisses Girl2. Girl panics and runs. Girl confesses to Guy. Guy breaks up with Girl so she can be with bigger love 'cause he loves her that much. Girl chases Girl2. Girl catches Girl2. Guy meets Girl3 on plane...

All is awwwww...

Cute movie. Especially if you like cute romantic comedies. And I do...

Rated R?

Awhile ago I mentioned the documentary This Movie Has Not Yet Been Rated. And I think Imagine Me & You helps illustrate the point they were making. This movie has NO sex in it. Little swearing (a couple F bombs and some use of the word wanker mostly). And nothing in the way of violence. Even most of the talk about sex is kept in the realm of metaphor. I'd barely rate this PG. Hell, I've seen racier stuff in Disney kid flicks...

Heroes

Mohinder goes hardcore. Coooooool...

2nd Edit: Well at least thats the end of Peter's stupid haircut. I hated that haircut...
