It's truly dreadful......ly wonderful.

Absolutely terrible and fantastic at the same time. Extended unrated version is ever better.

The Riddle

I got this free from a newspaper years ago and never really bothered to watch it. Man flu ahoy, and I stuck it on.

The reason why I'd avoided it was because of Vinne Jones. The films I've seen him in he's acted the hardman and given nothing else. Fine for Snatch and Lockstock, but I quickly got bored of it; the fact that he had basic and little or no speech certainly was a part of that. It became bland and repetitive and I had no motivation to watch a film with him playing the lead.

This British film starts off with Vinnie playing an eager journalist with an honest mindset. He gets fired and we quickly learn of his fondness for one pub, its landlady and for using and solving riddles. One day the landlady is found dead and off Vinnie goes using his professional skills to try and find the cause. The plot leads him to all sorts of trouble, but he does find friends from a lady friend and a really well played tramp.

The film's plot is pretty good and it makes a good story. The best part of it though was actually seeing Vinnie Jones act and as it turns out he's not that bad! A worthy watch if you can get your hands on it.

7/10

The Strangers.

Supposedly based on a true story about a couple who go back to a summer house after a wedding and are terrorised by 3 people. You never see the faces of the 3 people as they wear masks throughout the whole film. Quite a good film and when I checked how long I had been watching I realised that there was only 30 minutes to go, which by my book makes it a half decent film as I didn't realise the time. There are a few scenes which make you jump and watching it at midnight with all the lights off does give you a tendency to look around a lot.

We were also trying to figure out what we would do if the same thing happened to us while trying to tell the woman on the screen what to do (which always works )

8/10

One film is from the Japanese perspective, one from the American.

I think the American perspective was the first to be released.

We watched Casino Royale last night. I give it 4/10. It was a bit pants in all honesty. If I'd known that half the film was taken up by a bloody poker game, I wouldn't have wasted my £3 in Tesco.

Nope, not seen that. Will have to add it to the list.

Taken.

After having everyone telling me I must watch this film I finally got round to it. How freakin' cool!! I never knew Liam Neeson could be so bad ass!

9/10
