| Lions for Lambs
I had fairly high hopes for this, despite starring Tom Cruise, but it turned out it was a bland work of would-be propaganda if only it knew what its point was. Absolute rubbish.

I was looking forward to it, but reviews have sullied this somewhat.
I refuse to comment on the picture.

Some scenes were good. Really good. The Cruiser and Meryl Streep were in all of them.
Some were very very clumsy. | |

I couldn't work out if some of the dialogue between Cruise and Streep was supposed to be that awkward, or if I was cringing too much. Everything between Redford and the precocious idiothead was awful.

The bit with the two soldiers isn't worth mentioni | |

What a pile of utter bollocks.
How white are Tom Cruises teeth?
Aye, what side was it on?
I got lost.

Yeah I thought about this film last night, I actually *gulp* enjoyed Tom Cruise in it but to be fair capturing him in smarmy but weirdly charming way probably means following him around with a camcorder against his knowledge ala that guy in Bowfinger. I thought I was the only one who didn't get the point of it though so this thread is nice (Y) | |
