You Don't Mess with the Zohan . The new Sandler offering. If the rest of the film has gags as good as the "feet" in the trailer I'll be happy.

I'm always a bit 50/50 on Sandler's films, but he's growing on me, and that trailer does look like it might be rather good fun. |

Eddie Murphy might be funny again in Meet Dave.
Luke Wilson in Henry Poole Is Here . Kevin Costner in Swing Vote . Bankok Dangerous. Another Asian remake, re-directed by original Directors. Nic Cage has another bad hair day Steve Coogan in Hamlet 2. Spunky American teen teaches us Brits a thing or two about having fun inWild Child. Stick with it til the end for Nick Frost De Niro & Pacino go vigilante to the sounds of the Rolling Stones in Righteous Kill. Neil LaBute does neighbour disputes in Lakeview Terrace. Julianne Moore, Ruffalo and Bernal in interesting looking sci-fi Blindness. No trailer, but it seemsPunisher: War Zone is heading our way. |

He is a nasty piece of work, but if he's killing the baddest of the bad heck I'll watch it. In more important news....I know the Stath returns later this year in Death Race, and I know Crank 2 is now inproduction (because Chev Chelios asked to be my My Space friend!) but I didn't know there was a Transporter 3. Woo-hoo! |

Hey, I love the Bat, and assorted other vengeance-seeking nutjobs, but Castle just seems completely one-dimensional and single minded; the gun-crazy element just doesn't appeal to me, either. How is he any different to the people he goes after if he kills them? Transporter 3? Hell yes. |

I am so out of synch with the Statham oeuvre. Are Transporters 1 & 2 really worth checking out?

They're entertaining tosh, but no 'Crank'.
I found them enjoyable, but a bit *gulps* forgettable. *waits for Sostie slap* |

These are the only two that have got me particularly interested. From what I've heard, Hamlet 2 is terrific. We'll have to wait until Cannes to get the verdict on Blindness. |

I found them enjoyable, but a bit *gulps* forgettable. *waits for Sostie slap* Oh I can fully understand why people may have that opinion. They are not the greatest films out there, but they do have moments where they are elevated above the norm - usually involving The Stath, homo erotic fight sequences and ridiculous action. And they are fun, at least, while you watch them Crank however is a completely different kettle of fish. I truly believe it will be regarded as a modern classic in the future (though some, myself included already do). I wouldn't be surprised if Criterion released one of their DVDs for it in the future. As for Crank 2, Stath promises an even crazier sex scene with Amy Smart! |

QUOTE (Sostie @ May 2 2008, 12:22 AM) homo erotic fight sequences Oh, I haven't forgotten those bits. Or the madeleines. And you're totally right about 'Crank'. As for the sequel, I'm not sure they could top the al fresco hotness of the original sex scene, but I'll enjoy seeing their efforts I'm sure. It's a ridiculously brilliant (or brilliantly ridiculous) film. I have a real soft spot for 'Cellular' too. |
