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.

Guy’s Review...


First off, this is probably one of the most perfect scripts ever constructed. All the characters and locations are sculpted into perfection. As you are watching this film you’ll never find yourself bored and looking at your watch. Not even during the second or third viewing. Even then when you know the twist will you feel bored.


When people talk about Morgan Freeman they never bring this movie up as one of his best performances. This is clearly in his top three the same goes for the handsome Brad Pitt. The dynamic between these two actors is perfect.


David Fincher has had a hard time to rival this film in his later work (my opinion). The only on that comes close is “Fight Club”. Usually his films take a greenish color. Here however it feels yellow and dark. I love the way that he plays with color and darkness. This is one of his strongest visual sense. He as I have said about Luc Besson is a director that you can recognize by just looking at one of his frames.


Guy’s Rating: One of my favorite neo-noir films to date.


Girl’s OL: Hard to watch, but brilliant.
