Catfish (2010)
Really great watch
Really enjoyed this film. It took a while to get into its stride but when it did i found my self gripped and on the edge of my seat. As someone who spends a lot of time on the internet i felt that the film really makes a lot of important points as to how the internet has changed the world we live in.
As someone who does not watch a lot of documentaries I found this to be a really strong and worth while watch. I understand there has been rumours that the film is not completely if at all factual but i do not feel that that is really important, the films message is still the same and it a very strong message too.
Really enjoyed and would give it an 8 out of 10
How to Stop Being a Loser (2011)
I think this film deserved this rating
I have an idea how difficult it is to make an independent film but at the same time you always have to remember that the general people who go to the cinema don't care, all they're interested in is being entertained. After all they pay the same for a movie ticket to a tiny Brit film as they do for a ticket to Transformers! So when I went into an insider screening of HTSBAL at Showcase I tried very hard to see through they eyes of someone who doesn't know the work that goes into these projects. I'm not sure if I managed that but what I am certain of is that I thought this film was quite brilliant, hilarious as it is heartfelt, the humour balancing perfectly with the character development and the story exposition. The performances were all round strong with no exception and the chemistry between our principals Phillips, Conway, Atkinson and Leonidas was great, I know three of them have worked together again and this comes as no surprise to me. Plus the outtakes at the end had me rolling, I love it when films do outtakes. I think I may actually have to check it out one more time.
