Hot script v average script
What type of movie do you want to go and see; a dull one or a great one? While the question may appear a little (or a lot) on the brainless side, it’s a standard more screenplay writers need to apply. Often they have a great idea, but really only fifty pages of real [...]

3 stars*** ‘I didn’t know what was happening so I fell asleep.’ Well not me, but one of my companions on this fun filled visit to the local movie theatre. Actually two of them fell asleep, so that’s 50% of our team. They didn’t miss all of the film, but probably a third of it, so [...]

3 stars*** Been to the drive in. Watched it. Entertained reasonably. I wasn’t bored, but I wasn’t absorbed. Well acted. Well filmed and edited. It was satisfactory. I wouldn’t rush to see it again, on television or on DVD. I can’t see why it scores so highly elsewhere. It must be my personal opinion, then. I preferred it to the last Spiderman [...]

She will be the only actor in the film about a former music superstar talking about her career and the events of her life as they’ve unfolded since she stopped being the focus of media attention.
