August 2nd, 2008
I don’t believe in God, but after seeing Sigur Ros at the Hordern Pavilion I’m left with a burning conundrum: who am I supposed to thank for the fact that they exist? It seems a wonderful and unlikely miracle that music so uniquely and sublimely beautiful can be created so consistently. Listening [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;m not sure Nick Cave&#8217;s screenplay successfully tells the story he wanted it to - many of the characters&#8217; actions and motivations seem unfathomable, and ultimately you wonder what the point is supposed to be. Also, although I am a huge fan of Ray Winstone and Emily Watson, I suspect [...]]]></description>

Eastern Promises is a brooding, atmospheric snapshot of a murky London underworld. Apart from focusing on a crime subculture hitherto untreated by films, it presents a mesmerising study of what happens when the world we know brushes up against what [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A beautifully shot film in a gorgeous location, this could have been a really great film but for a bit of a sloppy plot and a pretty sub-standard supporting cast. Nolte is very good as the rough-diamond heroin-junkie ex(?)-thief, and his character is nicely developed, but the heist plot is rather unconvincing.

		<description><![CDATA[You could miss it if you weren&#8217;t paying enough attention, but Clint Eastwood&#8217;s highly atmospheric 1973 film, High Plains Drifter, is as much supernatural thriller as hard-bitten western. To an eerie soundtrack reminiscent of horror films, The Stranger materialises from the desert to wreak vengeance on the inhabitants of the desolate township of Lago for [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As volume six of The Dark Tower series, Song of Susannah, rolls toward us, we are beset by one burning question. Can Stephen King rescue the plot of his magnum opus from the wayward excess of self-indulgence that dominated the last two instalments in the series, Wizard and Glass and The Wolves of the Calla?

For thirty years, Cormac has been &#8220;gridlinked&#8221;: his brain has been directly connected to the all-pervading information network pervading the entire Polity realm.

		<description><![CDATA[You know what it&#8217;s like when you start a new job. You don&#8217;t really know anyone, so you tend to hold back in your interactions until you know the best way to get through to all these new individuals. Meanwhile, your new boss is probably trying to mould you into his pre-formed vision, and you&#8217;re still finding [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You know when Ridley Scott is at the helm, the film is going to be an exquisitely professional piece of work. But given his tendency to create films on such an epic scale, it appears critics’ expectations have been adjusted accordingly. Body of Lies has been widely criticized as being “just another spy film” despite [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The period around the late 60&#8217;s and early 70&#8217;s was something of a golden age for crime films.

And [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Dirty Dozen meets Full Metal Jacket, Korean style.
A group of condemned criminals undergo a brutal training regime to become South Korea&#8217;s most deadly unit. The aim: a mission to kill Kim Il-Sung. 
Completely over-the-top, but somehow this works. Despite the patriotic chest-thumping, this is utterly gripping in many parts. 
Worth a look.
