Barbarians are well known for their inexplicable hatred of boilers (copper pipes as well; central heating systems in general) it must be said.
Not wanting to be someone who just instantly blames someone for something, just because of their name but, we shoulda known from the start...

Blow Out (De Palma) - 4/5
Very good, if not excellent, film. The transfer is not very good though. Is there a R1 SE?

Inland Empire. If you like Mulholland Drive, you'll like this. A couple of bits really scared me. 4.5/5 or something.

Syriana - 5 / 5
Loved this movie, great stories which are all linked. Loved the politic of how Oil and Greed affects government we know, and how the poor people are treated.
A Scanner Darkly - 4/5
Interesting movie, which I think I have to watch again. I love the rotocoping animation, and think I "get" the movie, but think i will have to see it again.

Aces go Places
Hilarously funny, especially with the crappy-but-fitting German dub.
4/5
Aces go Places 2
Too many robots, too much crap, story = does not exist
Tsui Hark was funny in this one.
2.5/5
Aces go Places 3
Crap.
1.5/5
Smokin' Aces
Now, what a big disappointment that was! The movie tries way too much to be "cool", but in fact it's almost all crap, although there are nice ideas and moments in it.
Still: not a good movie. What a pity
2/5
Forbidden City Cop
Just watched that. It's definitely not as good as some of Chow's other classics, in my eyes, but still very funny and of course watchable.
I especially liked the scene introducing the 4 Forbidden City Cops.
Great fun!
3.5/5

I thought it was a bit dull and preachy to be honest...

Its a film I feel divide people, some people like it, but other think it is not great. There are a few films which I really didn't like which were Babel and 24 Grams. Each to their own, but some parts of Syriana struck a cord with me, maybe that why I did like the movie

I thought Syriana was total shit, probibly the single worst film of last year. BILE

I thought that it was film of 2005, not last year
, Anyway for me that is the same as 28 Grams and Babel

The Queen 2.5/5
By the numbers British drama, Helen Mirren won the oscar but film itself is nothing special. James Cromwell as Prince Philip and his obsession with hunting stags oblivious to the chaos around him is excellent.

I expected something completely different from "Syriana" and was hence kinda disappointed when I came out of the theatre. I felt that it was a good film, though and got it on DVD. I really like the film now. Not one I could watch again soon as it is very depressing.

I hoped Syriana would be a thriller, that's why I rented it, but not a lot happens in 2hrs except people talking. I tend to find "issue" films are like that. They forget to entertain. So unless the subject already interests you the movie isn't gonna 'strike a chord' as Slasher puts it. Politics can be interesting and suspenseful on film, but not here. It's obvious that the filmmakers were too pleased with their self-importance (and thoughts of awards season) to care.
