Pump Up The Volume

Well after many attempts in catching this movie I finally saw it!! You can find it at supernovatube.com. That's where I caught it. 

Well I do have to say it wasn't what I expected. I was looking forward to another radio comedy like Air Heads(great film) but it was even better. It was a kick-ass deep film disguised as a teenagers revenge. Lots of naughty themes, teenagers swearing and plenty of dialogue spreading the message that adults suck.  Hit the screens right on 1990. The year, the void between the 80's and 90's where anything sucked and everything was evolving.

Starring Christian Slater as Harry Hard-On with a kick-ass soundtrack happening. You've got the Pixies, Sonic Youth, The Descendants and heaps of other great artists to remember I gotta say I really loved this film. It kept rolling on without getting me bored, had some serious moments but pulled right back before anyone started getting blubbery and Christian Slater does a pretty awesome job himself.

I don't want to say anymore because this is one of the few films I don't want to give away the ending to. But I'll just say this, the ending left me disgruntled about it afterwards. You can decide for yourself what you think so I'm giving 9 out of 10.

Yes you heard me 9 out of 10.

A great cult film for angry teens who couldn't be stuffed to do anything about everything but still like to rage on in their own lazy ways about anything. 

Definitely gotta' watch this one.

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

And I thought modern films were crap. 

The film features a very morbid topic, aging backwards. It highlights themes of time, age, love, social adaption, adventure and wisdom blablabla. And of course it was another awesome job well done on brad Pitt's behalf. 

I'll be honest it was slow-paced, lacked action and was really bordering sappy slop. But I loved it anyway, if you take time to appreciate the little moments rather then the whole thing in one it really is a beautiful piece of cinematic art. Brad Pitt's convincing take on being an old man right down to a teenager was incredible. 

Oh i forgot to mention. It was directed by David Fincher ( I am a fincher fan) This being Pitt and Fincher's third film together I expected nothing less then kick-ass. 

A Question To The readers.

Now this is just me but I reckon motorcycles make guys, especially brad Pitt, look even sexier. Don't you?

Things to note.

I saw it on the second day after it was released in cinemas and the place was absolutely stuffed with people. Me and my friend got the crap seats at the front but the film was mesmerising enough for me to forget my neck was killing me. It is only M so it shouldn't be hard convincing over-protective parents that it's suitable to watch and I am warning you if you don't like slow-paced films that put emotion inducers before the plot then this is not the film for you. 

It makes me think of a snail that is beautiful enough to watch try to make its way to end ( i can even see brad Pitt sitting on top of this slow pretty snail rofl). So i am labeling this movie The Snail Element meets Brad Pitt at his best.

8 and a half out of 10 for me. It's nice to see 2008 did have some good films.
