A Note...

... to our loyal readers.

Guy is in Sweden, currently, and Girl is in Canada. No, we did not split up, as one of you has commented, but we do come from different sides of the world and this tends to happen when you are stupid enough to get involved in a long distance relationship.

So! To those of you who are expecting this website to be kept up to date on a regular basis (even after the fact that this has never happened so far), you will be disappointed.

But! We will try to watch the same movies, and we will try to write reviews about them at some point, then try to post those reviews on a semi-timely basis... maybe.

Some of you may call this a stilted promise, but we just call it reality. Unlike Lindsay Lohan, we have our feet planted firmly in it.

MISSION IMPOSSIBLE II

Guy now knows that he was an idiot as a teen.


There’s a bunch of action movies that I would defend to the end that I watched as a kid that now would be considered trash. Movies like “Commando”, “Double Impact” and “Universal Soldier”. I almost feel ashamed that I liked “M:I:2” when I was a young teen. I think I was too caught up in John Woo and thought that he could do nothing wrong (“Face/Off”, “Killer”, “Hard Target”). Now later in his career he’s ruined any chance to come back to Hollywood with blunders like “Windtalkers” and “Paycheck”.


Watching this again I almost found it laughable. There’s sooooo many slow motions scenes that if they took them away the movie would be half an hour long. Tom Cruise should never have had that semi long hair. He’s way too pretty that he almost looks like a girl.


Guy’s Rating: Watch Brian De Palma’s “Mission Impossible” instead, it holds up.


Girl agrees. No review or rating necessary.
