Ocean's Thirteen - Vegas Two Times

The boys are back in Vegas after their Euro trip. Soderburgh tries to recapture the original feel, but he's on a hiding to nothing. They say to 'never go back' and they say it for a reason. Still looks great and plays great and if that's what you like about the Danny Ocean capers then this won't disappoint. And give it a bit of respect in the fact that it doesn't hide it's origins or intentions. I for one love seeing this cast in action and is a shame we probably wont see anymore. No Julia Roberts I can cope with, but no Bernie Mac. No way.

Ocean's Eleven - The Beautiful people, the Beautiful people

Had to give myself the pleasure of watching this great movie once again.....in HD. It really is a beautiful piece. Plays well, sounds great and looks fabulous. George Clooney is an actor I like to watch, he oozes charisma and is a marker for all men trying to impress the ladies. That is ladies, not skanks. But the boy George aside, all of the cast are having a whale of a time in this and they are fantastic. Even the horrible Julia Roberts doesn't do too bad and I despise her normally. It all being set against the back drop of Las Vegas helps as well. Aaah The Bellagio, Ceasars Palace, The MGM Grand, such amazing places. I will go back and take some great photos next time. I digress, the story is great as well, with a few little twists and turns. Very much like 'Sneakers' which was another great little ensemble cast affair. Don Cheadles accent was a bit Dot Cotton though.

Bad Santa - He slept with an unclean woman


Don't watch this one with your kids. It just might not be suitable. It is rude, crude and downright dirty. But it just might be the best Christmas movie out there, the funniest for sure. Billy Bob nails it, The kid is immense, Tony Cox is huge and Lauren Graham is funny and so hot. It smacks Christmas on the head with a pneumatic drill dressed in bows an ribbons. The only people that wont like this is those miserable gits that think all they have to do is be soooper happy for two weeks a year. Well I hate you guys!!!
