The plot is simple, an alcoholic hit man (Kingsley) botches a job due to his alcoholism, Is sent to San Fran to clean up his act and get into a program. Even telling some co-workers about the premise of the movie cracked a laugh. Its a very whitey movie, sometimes a little slow but definitely worth a watch….

One thing that did grab my attention was Lenoi’s role, I felt it was almost identical to the role she played in Fun with Dick and Jane, I really think they should have thought of that whilst casting, but she did a great job none the less.

Luke Wilson played a fabulous AA sponsor, Hes really grown on me over the years (check out Idiocracy) and brings much more to the table than his more One dimensional brother, Owen. (Except Behind Enemy Lines but that doesn’t count because it bombed.)

Dennis Farina played an outstanding role as the Irish mafia leader, He’s one of my favorite badguys of all time, You Kill Me is definitely one of his best roles, all be it a little small. Overall, the acting in this Indy film was very good, the casting was perfect, the plot with intertwining stories worked very well and it made me laugh out loud on several occasions.

Well worth the watch, check IFC for times. I’ll give You Kill Me a 7.5/10

I’m still in shock I managed to sit through all 81 minutes of it. This sham of a crime / drama movie needs to be taken off any shelves and burned in a large open field so the stench of crap doesn’t pollute anything else….

I’m not even going to give you a basic plot outline for this one, nor list any of the flaws in this movie, what I am going to do is give it a rating of 2/10 and hope the rest of you don’t waste those precious 81 minutes of your life as I did. Horrible Horrible movie.

Not so Mr Brooks. You don’t want to give too much away when you review a film because it always takes away any surprise elements for the viewer, but let’s just say this is Costner in a role not seen before…

Mr Brooks is quite a suspenseful thriller with some juicy twists. Well cast, very well played and leaves you with plenty to think about. User review: 7/10

Gosling does an equally good job playing the DEA all star prosecutor, my only small peeve is the unnecessary romance subplot, completely detracts from the head-to-head whit fest that is completely entertaining and a joy to watch….

This movie didn’t do as well as I thought it would, It’s surprising when you look at the current drivel been thrust upon us at the moment; refer to our Wildhogs or Firstborn reviews.

Fracture delivers, big time. It’s a clever, thought provoking whit-fest that should keep you glued to your seat and completely engrossed. If it doesn’t, I’ll buy you a Pabst. 8.5/10

Popular, middle class high student (Justin Chatwin) is beaten and left for dead by a gang led by project girl (Margarita Levieva) who mistakenly believes he informed on her recent jewelery store robbery….

The half dead student dumped in the woods leaves his body and follows the investigation into his disappearance. A tad moralistic but the acting is quite good and the personal growth of the characters comes through rather well.

This is a great movie with very few flaws. A lot of time went into the script and cast selection. I’m not usually a fan of crime drama / thrillers but this one seemed different, almost like more of an effort was made during its production. There are a few plot twists that add to the movies flow, most of which worked.

Another thing I really liked about this film was the lack of unnecessary violence. It wasn’t your typical Hollywood flick with blood, gore and brutality… the violence used was in my opinion, necessary, and actually useful in delivering the plot. The dialog was crisp and incredibly well written and acted. A film that makes you think and the complete opposite of what I was expecting. I’d give The Lookout 8/10

Before I begin this review I must say, I really hope Shia doesn’t become stagnant playing a similar role in all his upcoming movies. Although he plays his part incredibly well, I fear he may become branded as a one dimensional actor, this kid is talented, give him some more challenging roles!

Onto the movie, After the loss of his fater in a fatal car accident, Kale becomes withdrawn and distant. After a fight with a teacher at school, he gets into some serious trouble resulting in home arrest. Once his privileges are taken away he turns his attention to the outside world and becomes fascinated with his new neighbour Sarah Roemer playing Ashley.

Now, why cant the directors realize Shia’s talent and give him a decent lead female? It seems every movie he’s in, they give him some blond bimbo who cant act to save her life. Very disappointing.

I like the aspect of voyeurism in this movie, Its a nice change from the usual hack and slash thrillers we’re all so accustomed too, Your watching the bad guys through a video camera or peeking through a closed blind, the camera shots are great and suspense scenes make you believe you’re there.

As the movie unfolds, Kale watches a story on the news involving a kidnapping, after further investigation and spying, it becomes clear “whodunit”. Needless to say, it was one of his neighbors he’d been watching.

I really enjoyed this movie, Mostly because I enjoy watching Shia. The movies simplicity and decent script helped keep my attention throughout, if there was a better leading lady and less clichés (dark stormy nights, blood splatters) It would have been a tad better. A not too shabby 7.5/10
