BRIDGET JONES’S DIARY certainly isn’t without its flaws but it’s so utterly charming you can overlook them. Certainly more so than the character herself who is perfect and I am deeply in love with

SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE’s biggest crime was to be too successful, particularly at the Oscars. The reality is a fairly innocuous film that is hard to feel particularly strongly about in either direction. Gwyneth Paltrow is actually really good though

I could see both Norris and Tsunoda getting penalties for that. One for weaving and one for overtaking off the track. Lando had room and didn’t need to put all 4 wheels over the line

Championship leader making an earlier pit stop than his title rivals and possibly getting stuck in traffic? I’m sure I’ve seen this one before somewhere…

I think the issues with CARRIE stem from its source material. There’s enough here to make a really interesting story without the need for any supernatural elements. Unfortunately they do exist and it holds the film back

Nobody wanted a Scorsese musical in 1977, and based on the end result of NEW YORK, NEW YORK they were right not to. Nice to look at but a struggle to get through otherwise

THE BLUES BROTHERS has such a flimsy concept they felt the need to just throw every idea they had to make a workable film. Some of it works, some of it doesn’t. If nothing else it does have great music and some phenomenal car chases

I wanted to like JUDE, with it’s critiques of religion and society and a very fine performance from a young Kate Winslet, but ultimately I found it to have this misogynistic attitude towards it’s female characters that are too much for me to overlook
