Movie Reviews

I have not updated for a while so I thought I should really post something but as I have not really done much except attend polymer science meetings and spend a week in cornwall at my parents. About the only interesting thing from my cornwall trip was going to one of the gardens (with mum and gran), I can't remember the name their all tre-something anyway, the gardens where impressive but what was great in my view was that they had peacocks, which where tame enough to be cadging food off people I really wished I'd had my camera they are very impressive up close. I also hadn,t realised that they like to perch in trees, it must be a remarkable effort to drag that tail up into a tree.Anyway to pad this out I thought I'd include my opinion on a few films I have seen resently:-Welcome to the Jungle - mindless action film but fun, similar to 80's arnie films but trying to be more comic, dialogue and characters motivations are a bit rubbish but action enjoyable + christipher walken scary as every.Master and Commander - pants, I couldn't much empathise with any of the characters, you got no real sense of the wider reasons for their actions so sort of like a documentary on naval history without any political context - not my cup of tea.Kill Bill Part 1 - enjoyable, feels at times like the names were invented by a thirteen year old (deadly viper assasination squad) and the scenes don't feel as connected (sort of a comic strip effect) as they might but most of the scenes are fadulously shot/set. So of the scenes of the brides recovery where a bit unnecessarily unpleasent I felt and could have been cut.Antway off to see shaun of the dead tonight I have high hopes since I loved spaced.
