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.

ONDINE



Guy’s Review...


So, Colin Farrell plays a fisherman with a daughter that suffers from sort of kidney failure. One day on one of his fishing trips he catches a young woman in his net. She tells him that her name is Ondine. She sings a couple of weird song and convinces both Collin and his daughter that she some sort of mermaid. A very nice and believable story right? Well, things are not always like what they seem. Ondine has a darker past that we are led to believe.

Neil Jordan who directed this film has a really good eye. The movie is completely stunning and the locations are beautiful. The acting is nothing to brag about and neither is the script. I guess Neil Jordan has done enough good films that he can get away with one or two vanity projects by now.


Guy’s Rating: I don’t think so. Way too slow for my taste.


Girl’s OL: I thought Farrell had been locked away somewhere after Alexander, but here he is... “making” movies still.
