Title=Where the Truth Lies
Score=8
Summary=Superb performances from Kevin Bacon and especially Colin Firth. A good story, balanced away from a climactic ending, the enjoyment of this movie is in the performances of the actors and the understanding of the characters and their relationships. Amazing production design. Well worth watching.
Title=Kiss Kiss Bang Bang
Score=9

The use of narration is innovative and very engaging. An excellent movie that warrants a couple of viewings. Slight difficulty in hearing lines and following action early on, but it doesn’t taint the movie and makes you feel like revisiting it.

The world is going to hell, you know how I know? It’s because every day we get a little bit more crazy, and our political correctness scale creeps past the balanced zero mark edging into the minus numbers. Another notch on that scale is that we’re set to see “this … [Read More]
I’ve just come back from a press screening of Where the Truth Lies, and in a week when I’ve just seen Chumscrubber and Kiss, Kiss, Bang, Bang. Compared to the months of remakes, sequels and prequels we’ve been subjected to, and the half arsed attempts at storylines, I’m frankly amazed … [Read More]
