Long delays between film watching due to scrubs and malcolm in the middle

10/7/09 - The Number 23 - For some reason this film gets worse everytime I see it. i think this is the 3rd time Ive watched it and it really isnt an enjoyable film when you know the plot twist the whole way through the film. Sure, its a good plot twist etc, but when a film is overly reliant on this to drive the movie, it tends to get old with multiple viewings. Take The Usual Suspects for an example. The dialogue, the characters, the action was all top notch, and by the time the twist is revealed, it is just the icing on the cake. The Number 23, on the other hand, had none of these other things. Though it is great to see Jim Carey in any role. 4/10

Sorry bout the lack of updates, but its not cause im lazy, its cause Im not watching anywhere near the number of films I want to due to various factors ( the ones in the title and work grrrrr). Ill try to get more watched in the next few days.

  1. I tried watching this about a month ago, got 20 minutes in to the dullness before Luke showed up with Jig and we played Rock Band instead. I made the right choice.
