2012

far too long. mildly enjoyable, thought it did exactly what it says on the tin. bit fed up of all the close calls they had escaping stuff in an aeroplane.

2 stars (out of 5)

2012 / Taking Woodstock

2012 was a fairly fun ride considering I was expecting it to be awful, I’m talking Day after tomorrow awful. The film was basically a kind of car chase… except it was the planet blowing up behind where ever John Cusack was running, driving, flying to. Quite a fun … feel good film… considering most of the world dies in it.

3 stars (might be 2 stars but was expecting alot worse)

In Taking Woodstock we see how the festival was put together. It really made me wish I grew up in the 60s and got naked with all the hippies. This is quiet possibly Ang Lee’s best film (especially if you don’t hold Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in high regard, which I don’t. And let’s face it his Hulk sucked!). I was expecting a funnier movie, but it was an interesting engaging one.

3 1/2 stars.
