One of the best movie going experiences yet

If you ever get the chance to watch a movie when you are the youngest, by at least 20 years of anyone in the audience, take it. I saw Gran Torino today at the fabulous empire cinema with about 20 people, all of whom would be at least 55. There was none of the giggling [...]

Raspberry is a dick!

I was feeding Kahurangi breakfast this morning, and we had playhouse disney on in the background. It was some Strawberry shortcake movie playing. That raspberry chick is so annoying.

Kenny

We went to see this today, and I have to say I loved it. If you ever saw the castle, while this isn’t as good, it comes close in parts. Go see it, its good.

Sanshiro Sugata

Akira Kurosawa’s directorial debut. This is a good film, it would have been much better without the edits the censors made to it back in the 1940’s. Unfortunately they cut a huge pile of film out of it, and it was lost in the post war confusion.
Its still worth a watch, in fact ive [...]

Little Miss Sunshine

Nacho Libre

I went to see this yesterday, its not a fantastic movie, but its worth a watch nonetheless. It would have been better without the row of annoying 13 year old girls behind me. I maintain once they hit eleven they should not be able to assemble in groups of more than two people.

Clerks 2

I thought this was even more funny than the original. Gross, wrong .. but very funny. It’s pretty much everything you’d expect from a Kevin Smith movie.

My Date with Drew

This is one of the more fun movies I have seen in a while. Its low budget, but with a great idea. I wont tell you much more about it, as it will ruin it, but its well worth a watch.
